Presumably HP is now using the "use food as units of measurement and the hungry masses will lap up your products" theory of mass marketing.
Coming soon:
- a laptop the size of a pizza calzone!
- a new PDA the size of a 8-oz packet of California sun-dried raisins!
- ink cartridges the size of a small tin of caviar (and more expensive!)
- a secure USB drive the size of a sun-dried tomato!

If the unit is 0.1 attoparsecs wide, they need to say it's 0.1 attoparsecs [wikipedia.org].
If it's half a nanoacre, they need to say it's half a nanoacre [wikipedia.org].
