GHz vs MHz

It used to matter if you used a lowercase K or uppercase K to indicate Kilo - one refers to 1000, the other 1024. Just don't ask me which was which.

:)

A standard was to use a lowecase when referring to radio frequencies (kHz) and I think an upper for computer rates kbs.

I think generally accepted that K always = 1000 except when talking about memory.

1 Kbs (kilo bits per second) is still 1000.
