URL title: When technically right is wrong: Kilobytes | Omar Khudeira
URL description: How many bytes are in a kilobyte? 1000 or 1024? The answer depends on who you ask. Google says 1 kilobyte = 1000 bytes. Hard drive manufacturers also say 1 kilobyte = 1000 bytes. However, my computer measures disk space and memory using the ratio 1 kilobyte = 1024 bytes. This discrepancy is well known and has been written about by folks like Jeff Atwood and Randall Munroe in xkcd 394.
