EvoX says 112.000.000.000 bytes, not 112GB.

112,000,000,000 bytes = 104.3 GB

1024bytes=1kilobyte
1024kilobytes=1megabyte
1024megabytes=1gigabyte

i keep messing up the conversion of bit-->byte-->kilobye, etc. on my exams.
like yesterday, i missed a question to find the number of bits in a 1024 "words".
i thought word was a byte, but it's actually 4 bytes. <sigh>
