[edit] KB instead of KiB?

Why wasn't that correct? I noticed someone made the change from KB to KiB here a while ago then it was rejected. Let's GET some consensus on this, folks! mike4ty4 (talk) 00:41, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

For RAM KiB and KB are equivalent even in 2008. Any article referring to KB of RAM on computers prior to 1995 are all using 1024 bytes and there is no confusion. Don't know of any machines with KB's of RAM after 1995 but if you find some embedded systems with KB I'm pretty sure it's 1024. KB is historically accurate for the description of RAM on this machine and no need to revise for historic reasons. Alatari (talk) 15:45, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
