[edit] Move
This should be moved to kilo- and get a {{lowercase}} tag. See Talk:Micro for rationale. — Omegatron 17:48, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Hard drive size
Sorry, Am I being really dumb here? Surely if they sold you a 1 Tera byte hardrive, and you thought, ah that's only 1x10^12 bytes when actually it's (1024^4=) 1.0995x10^12 bytes then they're understating how big their drives are; and although I see some weak ethical argument in misrepresenting their product I personally won't be complaining.
[edit] Kilo, big or small letter?
Just a thought. Is the use of k/K/Kilo correct in the text? Isn't Kilo supposed to be (large) K and not (small) k as the other great numbers, i.e. not like the small numbers? In the computer section both k (in kb) and K (in KB) is used, wich does complicate the issue. (Thavox 11:28, 6 March 2007 (UTC))
