I can't quite understand how _you_ have missed that this thread is actually about your refusal to concede that only dinosaur geeks want to keep KB and MB to show powers of 2. You're 100% right that the base2 convention is faulty - and have utterly failed to show any reason why we shouldn't correct the fault. It's _not_ however true that it was ever universally used - and that's why its faulty. -- derek -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
