What is the difference between the two I always see the new comps usually advertising like 2.4 Ghz and maybe 400-700 Mhz?

Dood The difference is between mhz and ghz is like...

Mhz = old fat slow guy wearing sandals...
Ghz = young punk soaring through the city streets in a BMW

recap: Mhz=slow, old ... Ghz: New, Hot, & Fast
Get it ?

Life's been sucked out of me
And this routine's killing me
I did it to myself, I did it to myself, I said it would not be
Somebody put me out of my misery

Generally, 1,000 Mega is 1 Giga. In other words, a 2.4 GHz computer would be equal to a 2,400 MHz one.

It depends. Frequency is base 10. Data storage/transfer is base 2 (which means that 1K is 2^10, or 1024).

Yeah, there's external and internal bus speeds. Having a meat grinder that can grind 2 tons of meat a day is useless if you can only get 100 pounds per day to it, to use an analogy.

Two bits in a bite.

Four bits in a nibble.

Eight bits in a byte.

1024 bytes in a kilo byte.

1024 kilo bytes in a mega byte.

1024 mega bytes in a giga byte.

1024 giga bytes in a tera byte.

1024 tera bytes in a peta byte.

1024 peta bytes in a exa byte.

1024 exa bytes in a zetta byte.

1024 zetta bytes in a yotta byte.

I think that about sums up what I wanted to write.

I've considered being a translator, but I dunno. It feels like a lot of work. If someone gets angry then I have to deal with it, you know? I'd rather just relax.

Exabyte, rather then erobyte. Then Zetta-, and then Yotta-.

And tera- is a single "r".
