I agree,
I really hate it when people use the wrong case. There's an 8-fold difference
between Gb and GB. Just toss in VIN number and NIC card and I really get fuming mad. And don't even get me started on people calling an entire computer a CPU....... :-(

Data transfer rates are being measured in units of amount of data per (divided by) time. Therefore it should read Mbit/s, shouldn't it? Sure, it means "per second", you might think. If you do not have that in writing, how do you sue a company if it does not deliver what was advertised? We are talking about telcos! Do you know any honest telco? I am waiting for the first ISP to offer "1 Gb" (notice the wrong unit for the amount of data - should be "B" for byte or "bit" for bit) which then turns out to be 1 gigabit per month. Impossible? Then take a close look at how wired ISPs are screwing up their customers and how they keep arguing about "bandwidth caps" measured in "GB" (which really means gigabytes per MONTH!); not to mention that ISPs started selling the cap as something positive (big numbers) and that the true motive for this cap is not an actual bandwidth issue, but the ISPs' desire to maintain their TV monopoly.

Nick, PLEASE get your units right or do what you do best and focus on non-technical issues like how ISPs and politics limit our freedom. Thanks!
