It's not 931 GB, it's 931 GiB. If there's a choice between brand A's 931 GiB drive and brand B's 1 TB drive, which do you think will fly off the shelves faster?

    I remember hearing about some burger joint (maybe a burger king of sorts) that came out with a 1/3rd pounder to compete with the 1/4 pounder. But it failed because the perception was that 4 is bigger than 3. Math is hard for people.

    Should've called it a 2/6 pounder

    I'd beat that with the 3/9 pounder!
