		A mebibyte (a contraction of mega binary byte) is a unit of information or computer storage, abbreviated MiB.
		The mebibyte is closely related to the megabyte (MB), which can either be a synonym for mebibyte, or refer to 10
		Use of mebibyte and related units is strongly endorsed by IEEE and CIPM.

	Mebibyte
		The mebibyte is closely related to the megabyte (MB), which can either be a synonym for mebibyte, or refer to 10⁶ bytes = 1,000,000 bytes, depending on context (see binary prefix for background).
		Use of mebibyte and related units is strongly endorsed by IEEE and CIPM and is slowly becoming more common.
		One mebibyte equals 1024 (= 2¹⁰) kibibytes, and 1024 mebibytes equal one gibibyte.

	Definition of Mebibyte
		A mebibyte is a unit of data storage that equals 2 to the 20th power, or 1,048,576 bytes.
		While a megabyte can be estimated as 10^6 or 1,000,000 bytes, a mebibyte is exactly 1,048,576 bytes.
		A mebibyte is 1,024 kibibytes and precedes the gibibyte unit of measurement.

	Megabyte (Linux Reviews)
		Several attempts to resolve these inconsistencies have been proposed, most notably the standard created by the IEC to redefine 1,048,576 bytes as a "mebibyte".
		Usually, the storage capacities of hardware devices such as hard drives are given as 1 megabyte = 1,000,000 bytes (especially for items made in Japan, as Japan has standardized on the metric definition).
		Other capacities, such as for the RAM capacity of most personal computers, are given as 1 megabyte = 1,048,576 bytes (known unambiguously as a "mebibyte").

		You'll find the term “Mebibyte” and "Kibibyte" used in this discussion to indicate 2^20 bytes or 1024 kbytes and 2^10 (1024) bytes respectively.
		Costs per Mebibyte via MPDS are a full 1/3 the cost of LSD via the B. Rules of thumb can be created for connection costs:
		Clearly the cost effectiveness of one connection method versus the other is completely dependant on the throughput obtained for LSD calls.

	Linux: Megabytes (MB) or Mebibytes (MiB)?
		The debate was sparked from a patch by David Woodhouse that Eric Raymond applied to Configure.help in the new CML2 configure language.
		According to these standards, technically a megabyte (MB) is a power of ten, while a mebibyte (MiB) is a power of two, appropriate for binary machines.
		A mebibyte is the actual 1,048,576 bytes that most intend.

		After an appropriate gestation, out has popped the kibibyte and kibibit, which represent exactly 1,024 bytes or 1,024 bits, respectively.
		We now also have the mebibyte, the gibibyte, the tebibyte, the pebibyte, and the exbibyte!
		Now, my challenge to you, other than to remember to use this new terminology, is to say "mebibyte" and "exbibyte" quickly, 10 times each.

		Yeah, but I've never seen the term "mebibyte" used outside of discussions like this.

		The standards organisation have actually devised something to clear the confusion when you buy a 200GB (gigabyte) drive and end up only being able to store ~180 'gigabytes' worth of information.
		When what you're measuring is actually a real, proper, computer speak size of storage the it can be referred to as a GiB or more easily referenced, but still commonly confused Gb.

		OK, so did we decide that 1024 bytes is always a Mebibyte and 1024 Mebibytes is always a Gibibyte and people just round off to a thousand so their brains don't fry when all they want to do is spend their money at Circuit City, meaning that the number 1000 is laymen crap?
