You don't need to wonder. You already know.I wonder who redacted this.
If you spell it Gb it's very much prone to confusion, especially in the world of computers where Gigabit is almost never used. This is usually a console thing.It's 1Gb RAM (Gigabit, not Gigabyte)
Just like End 2012 for the ICP2 !"Spring 2008"
Well duh, Craig isn't the first person ever to use marketing speak... I've seen many many many other companies trying to take advantage of the confusion to make something lesser sound more impressive.If you spell it Gb it's very much prone to confusion, especially in the world of computers where Gigabit is almost never used.

Well I guess it's like the 1Gb bullshit. It's "almost true" if you read between the lines. Guess the Man never changed then : dishonest from beginning to end."OpenGL 2.0 compliant 3D hardware"
Come on, don't try to find him excuses. Using 1Gb in that way is just blatantly dishonest on advertising, especially coming from a Linux/hacker community.Craig isn't the first person ever to use marketing speak...
Yeah, I'm sure this will be regarded as perfectly legal and nobody will ever complain they were cheatedwill have 16 Gb of RAM. And its CPU runs at a whopping 1,700,000,000,000 mHz! (millihertz, not megahertz).
Still have one on my custom standThe original Pandora boards had 128MBytes of RAM. I think they only went out as devboards to Notaz, Pickle, Skeezix and Squidge(... oh where is Squidge btw!?) and maybe some other devs.
