MB (megaByte) and GB (gigaByte) are measurements of storage in computers. Typically used to measure Memory (like Random Access Memory aka RAM) or storage (Floppy disks, hard drives, thumb drives, etc)
A bit is the smallest unit of storage in a computer. It can be a 1 or a 0.
A byte is a grouping of 8 bits. This is the most common size worked with. A single typewritten character is stored in a byte (in the English language.)
Just like meters, the prefixes kilo, mega, and giga can be added to bytes to define larger grouping of bytes. However where in the metric system each prefix is 1000 times larger than the last prefix, for bytes each prefix is 1024 times larger than the last prefix. (Note: Most hard drive manufactures use 1000 between prefixes since it makes their hard drives seem bigger.)
1 GB = 1,024 MB = 1,048,576 KB = 1,073,741,824 B1 MB = 1,024 KB = 1,048,576 B
1 KB = 1,024 B

How many megabytes in a computer?
That depends on the computer. The typical run-of-the-mill computer on the store shelves today will have: 1 gigabyte of system RAM (1024 megabytes) 256 to 512 megabytes video RAM 250 to 500 gigabytes of hard disk space (256000 to 512000 megabytes) and a DVD-RW drive capable of writing up to 8.5 gigabytes per disc (8700 megabytes) And dont forget up to 12 megabytes cache built in to the cpu.
What is a USB cruzer?
A USB Cruzer is SanDisk brand of a USB Flash (Memory) Drive. Such a device stores just about any computer file type. SanDisk Corp. makes all kinds of USB flash drives, from 16 MB (mega byte) to 32 GB. (MB or GB is a unit of storage capacity, as in 0.016 GB = 16 MB or 32 GB = 32,000 MB.)
How do you figure out how many bits your computer has?
In Windows:1. Go to My Computer.2. Right-Click the Drive/ Removable Storage you would like to see how many bits it contains.3. Click Properties.4. It should tell you what it's Free Space, Used Space, and Capacity are in Bytes.5. You probably mean Bytes, not Bits, but if you really mean Bits, then multiply how many Bytes there are by 8 to get how many Bits it is.For the difference between Bytes & Bits, Read this below. Plus you'll learn more stuff.based on 1000 KB = 1 MB and so on based on 1024 KB = 1 MB and so on4 Nibbles = 1 Bit 4 Nibbles = 1 Bit8 Bits = 1 Byte 8 Bits = 1 Byte1,000 Bytes = 1 KB 1024 Bytes = 1 KB1,000 KB = 1 MB 1024 KB = 1 MB1,000 MB = 1 GB 1024 MB = 1 GB1,000 GB = 1 TB 1024 GB = 1 TB~and the list goes on~Don't confuse bits with bytes, ex. 8 Kilobits (Kb) = 1 Kilobyte (KB)so on with Megabits (Mb) Gigabits (Gb) ...most people will use 1 MB being 1000 KB, but the reason for 1 MB = 1024 KB was/is for the way computer memory is stored. that's why you see flash drives that are usually256 MB, 512 MB, 1024 MB (1 GB), 2 GB, 4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB, and rarely 32 GB.that's where it starts, because you keep with the pattern shown:1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, 2048, 4096 ...I hope this wasn't too confusing for you, but maybe this will answer future questions & provide a better understanding if you can keep up.P.S. for future conversions, If you'd like to convert based on 1000 KB = 1 MB, then all you have to do is move the decimal, and if you'd like to convert based on 1024KB = 1 MB, then google calculator will provide you with the correct answer. You can use google calculator by typing into their searchbar something along the lines of:KB in MB, but you have to remember to keep the letters capital, otherwise it will confuse it with Kilobits/Gigabits.Oh, and remember, almost all ISP's (Internet Service Providers such as Charter & Qwest) us Megabits per second, not Megabytes per second, so to find out how many Megabytes per second they are advertising, just divide it by 8.
