Re: Windows OS is using wrong measurements

These are deceptive practices, period. Selling it under one measurement, but in reality its going to be used under another measurement.

So I suppose you feel real ripped off too because you buy a 270 horsepower car, but that is ONLY at a fixed rpm and load... in the real world overall performance not barely near that... but thats OK?

Why not JUST BE EDUCATED in what it is you are actually buying... you REALLY need 120GB of TRUE space then buy a 160GB DRIVE... WHAT $10-20 MORE MAYBE BIG DEAL!!

And that is just because you start calculating in binary, while I expect that you do it as usual - in decimals?

OZO, there are 10 kinds of people in this world: those that understand binary and those that don't.

Good point! You're proving that two people may see '10' under different angles if they're not agree on a basic standard terms.
It's good for marketing, not for user.
