Shouldn't really be surprised anymore about boosts in memory, but I still think back to that 8MB card that came with my first Digital Camera.

New CF card format supports up to 150 994 944 GB

Holy crap. What about external drives? Laptops? It makes my 320 GB MBP seem pathetic.

Sounds even more impressive if you call it 162,129,586,585,334,400 Bytes or maybe 1,297,036,692,682,675,200 bits?

144PB is shorter.

144PB is certainly shorter, but PBs aren't something that a lot of people are familar with. GB is about the largest unit that currently has any meaning to anyone.
