Re: Wow...

I agree. The difference between a byte and a bit to even a moderately computer savy person is obvious but Kb and kb tend to be more confusing.

I am, however, worried about the people would cannot differentiate between .002 dollars and .002 cents. .002 cents would allow a heck of a lot more data!

Indeed, my sides are a little sore from watching that video.

Seems you got confused yourself. Kb and kb are the same thing. KB and Kb would be different.
