morn gang:

One thing: _DO_ add the unit you are thinking - speaking sloppy in
your closest circles (i. e. family, co-workers etc) and implying _one_ unit
refering to is okay, but in broader cricles it may be a bit complicated.

After the debate on the limits of I am asking you to do us all a favor:
Could
you pleeease add the unit you are refering to? The problem is, 90k can be
*anything* - if you're thinking of 90k\underline{\emph{\bold{bytes}}} or if
you are thinking of 90k monetary units - just say what you are meaning.
BTW: If you still don't know: k as sign for thousand is _not_ written in
capitals. 

Thanks,

If you have no idea how to code complex table enviroments, it is easier to
un easier making a drawn outline of the planned table - the actual coding
is the easiest thing. This is in principle the same as the storyboarding of
a site, but focussing on a detail
