Benefits and drawbacks of using a CD-ROM presentation

A megabyte (MB) is 1 million (1,000,000) bytes.

Roughly speaking, this means it can hold 1 million characters.

Strictly speaking, a character can take more or less than 8 bits to store, though, depending on the character and the encoding.

It's 716.8 KB.

You can also use google as calculator, type in: 0.7 megabytes in kilobytes

But: DON'T USE ANY SHORTNAMES OR GOOGLE WON'T CALCULATE!

since there are 1024 mb in 1 gb, u do the math 1024 x 235

Macro is feature in MS Excel software which records all the steps and all the steps can be repeated whenever a same task is required to be performed. It helps in reduction of time in performing monotonous task. Macro is available in Tools menu.

It depends which standard you use.

JEDEC standard:

A kilobyte is 2^10 = 1024 bytes (1 KB).

A megabyte is 2^20 = 1,048,576 bytes (1 MB).

A gigabyte is 2^30 = 1,073,741,824 bytes (1 GB).

Therefore 50 GB is 53,687,091,200 bytes which is 52,428,800 KB or 51,200 MB.

IEC binary standard:

A kilo-binary-byte (kibibyte) is 2^10 bytes = 1024 bytes (1 KiB).

A mega-binary-byte (mebibyte) is 2^20 bytes = 1,048,576 bytes (1 MiB).

A giga-binary-byte (gibibyte) is 2^30 bytes = 1,073,741,824 bytes (1 GiB).

Therefore 50 GiB is 53,687,091,200 bytes which is 52,428,800 KiB or 51,200 GiB.

IEC decimal standard:

A kilobyte is 10^3 = 1000 bytes (1 KB).

A megabyte is 10^6 = 1,000,000 bytes (1 MB).

A gigabyte is 10^9 = 1,000,000,000 bytes (1 GB).

Therefore 50 GB is 50,000,000,000 bytes which is 50,000,000 KB or 50,000 MB.

Note that the JEDEC and IEC binary standards are the same, only the unit names differ, whereas JEDEC and IEC decimal standards use the same unit names but a different unit of measure. This naturally leads to much confusion, especially when the standard being used is generally unspecified.

Technically, the two IEC standards are correct because the "kilo-" prefix comes from the Greek for one thousand so 1024 bytes is really a kibibyte not a kilobyte. However, the JEDEC standard precedes the IEC standard and is still in use today. That is, when you buy a 4 GB memory chip you expect the chip to have exactly 4 * 2^30 bytes (4,294,967,296 bytes). Under IEC decimal, 4 GB would simply mean "approximately 4 billion bytes", which is technically correct. Unfortunately, hard-drive manufacturers chose to use the IEC decimal system because it makes their hard drives appear much larger than they actually are. That is, a 50 GB drive is really just a 47 GiB drive. It'll still have at least 50 billion bytes, but it is more than a little misleading when the operating system reports it only has 47 GB under the JEDEC standard.

The instruction set of a computer is the collection of commands that its Central Processing Unit (CPU) can carry out natively. These are the things that the processor inherently knows how to do if asked.

Among those who currently use a computer, the primary motivating factor is for work and/or to improve employment prospects.

For those who are not required to use a computer for work purposes, there are other motivating factors on a more personal level. These include the challenge of keeping up with the times and/or their children, as well as the opportunity of satisfying their curiosity by pursuing a new interest.

However, other respondents indicated that nothing would motivate them because they are not interested, or perceive themselves too old to need to learn how to use a computer. Without some additional education to change attitudes these people are unlikely to access computer literacy programs no matter where they are offered

That's a bit like asking how many ounces a glass can hold - there are many different sizes of hard drives. However, the rule for data size conversion is that there are 1024 megabytes (MB) per gigabyte (GB). If it's important to go further, the same rule applies for kilobytes: 1024 kB/MB.

The actual number is 1024 (2^10), but it is often approximated to 1000.

There are 1024 MB in 1 GB, although, for the purpose of easier calculations, 1 GB is taken to be 1000 MB. 1024 GB make 1 Terabyte.

It is an input, sensors are always inputs.

All Macs should have a fn key in the very bottom left corner. It is under the Shift key and next to the control key.

It depends on the website, which last time I checked, there was a few of them, all with their own configurations. Sites with bare minimum texts (such as Drudge Report) will use hardly any space at all. Some of them with graphics, use of videos, and so forth will take more.

The price for computing equipment varies depending on the brand, quality, and durability of the product. An Apple Time Capsule (2 TB) sells for around $300, but Best Buy's website sells a Toshiba 2 TB external drive for only $100.

0.48828125 Megabyte (MB)

yes, there are 1000 megabytes in a gigabyte

A MP3 song, uses an average of 2 to 4 Megabytes.

There is a type of DVD called DVD-RAM. It is rewritable, and supports up to 100,000 rewrites, as opposed to 1,000, for the +rw, and -rw standard. It also has greater error correction ability. DVD-RAM can act like a slow hard drive, in that you can write files directly to the disk, as well as delete individual files.

I myself have not seen many DVD drives that support DVD-ram, most likely because the media is expensive, not widley avalible, and exceeds the need of the average user.

Anything that can generate reports detailing the day to day, monthly, quarterly or annual operations. Think of a sales team of 10 employees who make commission monthly on all closed sales for the previous month, IS would have the ability to generate a report detailing the info required to accurately determine the correct compensation. Some IS depts also help in auditing, quality control, and even mergers.

No DDR2 and DDR are not compatible and so you can not add DDR2 RAM module in a DDR Slot. Electrical specifications like voltage, signal pinout and even mechanical size and shape of modules are different.

To be clear on the matter, 1TB, that is one Terabyte, is equal to 1,000,097,181,696 Bytes. 1GB, that is one Gigabyte, is equal to 1073741823 Bytes. When you divide the number of bytes in 1TB by the number of bytes in one GB, the answer is 931.413GB so doubling this answer, i.e. multiply by 2, one gets 1862.826GB in a 2TB HDD, and not 2048.
