Author never mentions that treating gigabyte as being equal to 10^9 bytes is actually endorsed by standards organizations such as NIST and IEEE and overall is a better practice. By failing to mention that fact the author implies that Apple is trying to fool us by inflating the reported disk sizes of it's products.
+1. That grated on me a bit, too. While the author does treat the topic extensively, it felt slanted. There's no grand conspiracy: storage manufacturers have traditionally reported capacity in base 10 GB, software in base 2 GiB. So long as the article is internally consistent, so as to compare like units, what does it matter?
He does a lot of things like this. Look at the "main" picture, the graph of storage breakdown. Instead of aligning the sections, he makes it intentionally misleading with that orange block on the right.
I'm not sure why he's being so misleading here, since he would have had a point anyhow.
