Great notebook, one nit: the bottom dropped out at the end when the author went from $2.8B to $22B. It would be better to explicitly state the unit conversion: $2.8B/bit * 8 bit/byte = $22B.

Thanks. Reading back through it I agree so I updated to put that final calculation in a separate notebook cell to be more explicit.
