The gigabyte ( /ˈɡɪɡəbaɪt/ GIG-ə-byt or /ˈdʒɪɡəbaɪt/) is a multiple of the unit byte for digital information storage. The prefix giga means 109 in the International System of Units (SI), therefore 1 gigabyte is 1000000000bytes. The unit symbol for the gigabyte is GB or Gbyte, but not Gb (lower case b) which is typically used for the gigabit.
Historically, the term has also been used in some fields of computer science and information technology to denote the gibibyte, or 1073741824 (10243 or 230) bytes. For instance, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) defined the unit accordingly for the use in power switchgear. In 2000, however, IEEE adopted the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) recommendation, which uses the metric prefix interpretation.
Today the usage of the unit gigabyte continues to depend on the context. When referring to disk storage capacities it usually means 109 bytes, often stated explicitly on the manufacturer's permanent sticker. This also applies to data transmission quantities over telecommunication circuits, as the telecommunications and computer networking industries have always used the SI prefixes with their standards-based meaning. When referring to RAM sizes it most often (see binary prefix adoption) has a binary interpretation of 10243 bytes, i.e. as an alias for gibibyte. File systems and software often list file sizes or free space in some mixture of SI units and binary units; they sometimes use SI prefixes to refer to binary interpretation – that is using a label of gigabyte or GB for a number computed in terms of gibibytes (GiB), continuing the confusion.

cause no ones really that super
but i'll steal the neighbors cat with you
believe me when i say,
i;d love to run faster the a trian some day
and say all the right things
to sweep you off your feet
oh psycho ballerina
sleep with me on the ocean cliff,
its you i smell its you i miss
oh psycho ballerina
fling off your shoes let down your hair,
lets drive into the middle of nowhere.
the phone it keeps on ringing
the earth it keeps spinning
the dirt is brown, the moon is white and i need you now
every night i have a ton of dreams,
i cant remember in the morning,
lets slip on through back on forth
and call me up.
oh psycho ballerina
sleep with me on the ocean cliff,
its you i smell its you i miss
oh psycho ballerina
fling off your shoes let down your hair,
lets drive into the middle of nowhere.
