Curious iPod Question
PostPosted: Sat Dec 04, 2004 9:25 pm
I've recently acquired a 20 gig iPod, but I was curious...now I know I'm not the math genius here, but it says I only have 18.5 G capacity. Where'd the other 2.5 go?

(and Agasfas too for trying to tell me the same thing)

I'm surprised that all this made sense to me. the math section of my brain has always been kinda...shriveled up in a dark corner somewhere. It probably drank too many sodas early on in my life, then crashed from the sugar/caffeine high and never really woke up again.
2 to the 10th power (2^10), is the closest whole-number power of 2 that one can get to 1000
