Story: Seagate pays out over gigabyte definition
Sometimes things should be as they are and not as they simply can be.
Finally some sanity. How hard is it to simply make things the way they should be instead of dumbing down things to make them simple but not true? While I doubt too many people will even bother with filing a claim - that is the problem with society in general. Senator Larry Craig is a great example - he isn't homosexual (I take his word on that) but yet he was stupid enough to plead guilty to a crime he didn't commit to "make it go away" media wise. NEVER plead guilty to something you didn't do. So don't tell us that a drive capacity is different based on your simplification of math. Stand up for what is correct even if it is not popular or simple. Tell us the actual capacity of the drive - if you want to say it is 400 gigabytes then wait until you can make the drive actually 400 gigabytes the way it should be calculated. Then you can use that against the other guys in advertising that when we say its 400 gigabytes we don't mean 390 gigabytes and change. Honesty - still the best policy.
