> SI has its own problem... How to pronounce "giga-". Well, being a latin prefix latin pronounciation would be nice... And as an italian fellow let me say that latin pron. for "giga-" is something like G- as the "g" in gym I- as "ee" in eel G- as the "g" in gum A- as the "u" in us Sorry for the headhache.. Try to gigure up how messi it is for us poor italians to sort up english pronunciation :)
