Re: Maximum number of partitions?

The 10g Reference Guide, although it might be outdated, still says:

"Maximum number of partitions allowed per table or index: 64 KB - 1 partitions"

Actually I wonder how the scientists in Oracle have managed to create an entirely new measurement unit for partition counts: KB e.g. KelvinByte? How can you actually substract one "partition" from an amount of information at specific temperature?

Or has 10g adapted a new, informational-temperatural model instead of the old object-relational one?
