At 11:10 AM 5/18/00, VIVEK_SHARMA scribbled on the wall in glitter crayon:

>1 Peta Byte  = 1000 Tera Bytes
>1 Tera Byte  = 1000 Giga Bytes
>1 Giga Byte  = 1000 Mega Bytes
>1 Mega Byte = 1000 Kilo Bytes
>1 Kilo Byte    = 1000 Bytes

i thought they were all increments of 1024 it being a power of 2 and all.
