It's actually designed for servers and supercalculators, has no home application whatsoever.
The one up form GigaByte is TeraByte, then Petabyte, Exabyte, Zettabyte and Yottabyte. Below GigaByte is MegaByte, KiloByte and Byte. I don't think they've named any more! Oh, and a bit (b) is an eigth of a Byte (B).

Bits are a single peice of data, I.E. a character. A bitmap is where each colour is assigned to a character, and then the picture is just done as each pixel is a character, layed out like that. A jpeg, however, uses compression and patterns to make the picture, so it is totally different. Opening a .bmp in notepad, and it looks really cool. I think that's why
As for a Goog[b:c1186b08a6]ol[/b:c1186b08a6]Byte, that will never hapen, it's not how they do it.
