The bytes suffix on the end modify the SI Prefex to the powers of 2, therefore 1 Gigabyte = 1024 Megabytes.
The SI powers of 10 were apprently introduced to thow us all off and make hard drives and such sound bigger than they really are.
"Im dead, bitch"
Anyways, Dosent this defeat the whole purpose of the game? I mean, the game really wouldn't be all that scary if you can see what your shooting at.
The rovers move at about 1 meter every half hour.
This is becuase of the PowerPC Processor (@ 20 MHz) that it uses to compute the optimal route from place to place, and the 10 minute delay both ways for sending orders. The rovers also have 256 MB of Flash ROM, the stuff that messed up Sprit and allows them to store orders and pictures that are waiting to be sent back to earth at approx. 30KBs. Also, the commands that are writen in a C-like language, and like someone said before the rovers use Vxworks a RTOS that i belive is based off linux, so SCO will prolly want there licenceing fees soon...
Jeez, why do you keep saying the agent was off duty? It dosen't matter if the agent wass off duty, this lady was commiting credit card fraud, which is aginst the law.

I don't think that the marine thought that the gates of hell would be opened on his first shift.

You have to understand that all the storage terms have the word BYTES on the end, that would make them part of the binary system of 2s, NOT 10s.
