How would you pronounce 0x400 ? Would you say 1K, even though it is 1024 decimal? Would 0x1000 be 4K? 0x4000, 16K and 0x10000, 64K? If so, then 0x100000 might be pronounce as 1 Meg and 0x8000000 would be 128 Meg. Just a thought.

I've met people that think the Y2K bug was a hoax [even once in Parade Magazine]. They saw that nothing happened, not knowing the work that went on behind the scenes.

Heathkit ET-3400 Microprocessor Trainer. http://www.vintage-computer.com/heathkit3400.shtml[^] It had a Motorola chip, the 6800, with 256 bytes of RAM. I later got the add-on that had more memory and a Cassette Deck interface for saving programs.
