   What is the capacity that Vista or Longhorn can support

   Well, not exactly.

   Here are the SI prefixes: k (kilo = 10^3), M (mega = 10^6), G (giga = 10^9), T (tera = 10^12), P (peta = 10^15), E (exa = 10^18), Z (zetta = 10^21), and Y (yotta = 10^24).

   The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) has adopted binary prefixes and symbols: Ki (kibi = 2^10, and note not ki), Mi (mebi = 2^20), Gi (gibi = 2^30), and so on up to Ei (exbi = 2^60).

   Tet, I've never seen S as a substitute for P (peta), although I might be wrong. (Or, maybe this is a joke I didn't get?)

   Desmond, I think the physical and virtual memory limit for Vista depends on the chip and the edition:

   Roughly, Vista Ultimate 32-bit 4 GB (er, 4 GiB) and 64-bit is 128 GiB.

   I think that with 64-bit Windows Server Longhorn Datacenter Edition you can use 1 TiB.

   Now, back to my turkey and our work on the looming Y10K promlem.
