Bytes. . .

    This is information take from the keynote speaker, Josh Coates.  He spoke at RootsTech 2012 on Friday, 3 February 2012.  
      • a megabyte is about 300 pages of paper
      • a petabyte is about a truck filled with one ton of paper
      • a exabyte quantity of paper would clear all the trees, larger than 8 inches in diameter, in the United States
      • a zettabyte will be the next level

      We are currently entering the exabyte era.
