Wait, now I'm confused because Wikipedia says 1 KB is 2^10 and 1 KiB is 2^10 and 2^10 is 1024 so w-t-f is the difference between the two??
Edit: I'll just stick with what's been established since long before I was born, where 1 KB = 1024 Bytes.
The Standard SI, and Ratio SI/Binary columns.
Software I use and highly recommend: Opera, Miranda IM, Peerblock, Winamp, Unlocker Assistant, JoyToKey, Virtual CloneDrive, Secunia PSI, ExplorerXP, GOM Player, Real Alternative, Quicktime Alternative,Sumatra PDF, and non-freeware: Photoshop and VB6( ).
My codebank: AllRGB, Rounded Rectangle(math), Binary Server, Buddy Paint, LoadPictureGDI+, System GUID/Volume Serial, HexToAsc, List all processes and their paths, quasiString matching
Strings(search, extraction, retrieval etc): Retrieve BBCode Link from HTML, RemoveBetween ()'s, strFindBetween(str1,str2), Insert text in HTML, HTML - GetSpanByID
