Welcome to the site where the owners and members have had it with playing "nice" and being "inclusive" and "tolerant" of points of view that are destroying the fabric of what made this country great. The members here are sick and tired of politicians of all parties lying, deceiving, stealing, and pretending they are doing it all for the good of the country while selling out to special interests who have the set goal of destroying this country. We have had enough of career politicians who use their office only for personal gain, and who refuse to listen to the people who put them in office. The membership is no longer part of the silent majority who play nice and get along while getting screwed by anyone with a loud voice and an agenda. We will no longer allow anyone to piss down our back and tell us it's raining. And we like guns too.

Default mega bites- giga bites

Is this correct (mb) (gb) (tb)

1000 Mega bites (mg) = 1 giga bite (gb)

1000 giga bites(gb) = 1 tera bite (tb)

Yes. But, how many bits are in a byte?

If "Wisdoms" are involved it would be 32, otherwise only 28.

There are 8 bits to a byte and 8 bytes make a word on a 64 bit machine, 4 bytes make a word on a 32 bit machine.

I spelled bytes wrong on porpoise

Im going to get a thump drive(flash drive) or a external hard drive to get the videos etc off my new pc since It has a solid state hard drive and not much storage

I think a ext. hard drive maybe the best bang for the buck $

Im not sure how you can store stuff on a external. If it has different areas or files or if stuff is all lumped into one file

But, you don't want to byte on the horse's bit, or you will be seeing the dentist.
