And I'm sure if you look hard enough you'll find an arcane machine that has a different definition of a bit.
<br><br>One of the things that always got me was how the Japanese console makers (Nintendo, Sega, etc) always referred to the storage capability of their games, memory cards, etc. in Mega
Bits to make their capability sound greater. I'm suprised they didn't invent the "sub-bit", of which 8 would be required to form a bit, so they could then use a number 8 times larger in describing their product: The New Nintendo 512 features a 512 SubBit Processor and 1+ GigaSubBits of RAM!<br><br>Dan East<br><br>
