If you click on the google apps spreadsheet link in the first message on page 1, you'll see that I started to add a movie description field. This field trails off to the right a long way. I didn't want to make it scroll multiple lines, because this would make the rows too high. What I wish is the ability to have a column for description and a button in each cell. If you click on the button, a window opens up displaying the description that is recorded in that cell. They have gadgets that you can add on a per cell basis, but none that will do this function. You can write your own gadget, but I haven't seen any info on how to do this yet.

Sorry but 1000 is correct. This is not a memory size spec but a frequency measurement using the decimal system and not powers of two.

That's debatable... I believe the 1000x prefixes are only used for hard drive size, not network speeds.

- In data communications, a kilobit is a thousand (103) bits. It's commonly used for measuring the amount of data that is transferred in a second between two telecommunication points. Kilobits per second is usually shortened to Kbps.*
Some sources define a kilobit to mean 1,024 (that is, 210) bits. Although the bit is a unit of the binary number system, bits in data communications are discrete signal pulses and have historically been counted using the decimal number system. For example, 28.8 kilobits per second (Kbps) is 28,800 bits per second. Because of computer architecture and memory address boundaries, bytes are always some multiple or exponent of two. See kilobyte, etc.

Note: In international English outside the U.S., the equivalent usage is "kbps" or "kbits s-1."

GREAT JOB! on the spreadsheet.

Though really unimportant, I found an error you might want to correct. 1933's Little Women starred Kathrine Hepburn, Joan Bennet, Paul Lucas, and Edna May Oliver. I'm pretty sure Susan Sarandon, Winona Ryder, & Kirsten Dunst were not alive in 1933. laugh

Oops. That was from Little Women 1994. Thanks for spotting this. I've fixed it.

She disappeared for a while with rumors of alcoholism. 'tis sad.
