This is being somewhat silly, guys. As much as I agree that storage manufacturers shouldn't have started cheating on sizes, about 15 years ago, the size in bytes is still the size. I can compare file sizes on my Mac Pro, running 10.6.2, to those on my Mac Mini G4, and they are identical, of course. All that was changed was the rounding method for displaying size as something other than bytes.
