Now ask him how many kilobits in a milligigabyte. His head will unscrew and
fall on the floor...

give this to your boss.
As a Unit of Measure
We use bytes, like bits, to measure capacities and speeds. To distinguish
bytes from bits (lowercase "b"), we use an uppercase "B." For large numbers
of bytes we add prefixes such as K, M, G, T.
KB = Kilobyte (KIL-oh-biit) = Thousand bytes (actually 1,024).
MB = Megabyte (MAAG-uh-biit) = Million bytes (technically 1,024 x 1,024 =
1,048,576).
GB = Gigabyte (GIG-uh-biit) = Billion bytes. BrainAid: Giga rhymes with
bigga. Think bigga = billion.
TB = Terabyte (TAIR-uh-biit) = Trillion bytes.

I am having a typical issue with a nontech manager.
In the mailbox resources page of the private information store it shows
mailbox resource size totals in K.
That total, in the 1,000s is equivalent to MB, right? Now he is confusing
the hell out of me too, much less himself.
For example, if Joe Blow is using 23,254 K, he has a mailbox that is using
roughly 23 MB of space, right? Sheesh
