The notation that I'd seen in one of my texts was along the lines of: kb = 1000 bits kB = 1000 bytes Kb = 1024 bits KB = 1024 bytes m = 1000^2 M = 1024^2 and so on, where a lowercase prefix denotes base-10, an uppercase prefix denotes base-2, a lowercase b denotes bits, and an uppercase B denotes bytes. Has anybody else heard of this?
