LOL...yes. should've been an Eighth, but we don't have a coin for that.

Your math is right. I was just thinking of a Byte as $1.00 and going from there. Then remembered that bits are smaller, but they shouldn't be $1 because a single bit is not very powerful. But making it worth $1 or $0.01 would make the math messier.

But yes. Two bits are a quarter is probably the best compromise! Lol

    If a bit is 3.5 grams, then a byte is an ounce...

    That makes a kilobyte about 1000 ounces!
