Windows 10 build 10240 preview version of the operation video

When releasing major versions of Windows, Microsoft will always pick a special number as a code, such as 4.00.950 on Windows 95, 4.10.1998 on Windows 98, 6.0.6000 on Vista and 5.1.2600 on WinXP. Of course, you might think that Microsoft engineers are going to have Windows 8 with the internal version number of 8888, but the habit of continuing from Vista shows that the company prefers to use x16 numbers. For Windows 10, it seems to be the case.

Microsoft has chosen 10240 as the final build number for Windows 10. At first glance, this seems to be nothing particularly interesting, but if you dig deeper, you will find the following rules.

• 10240 kilobytes = 10 megabytes (where kilo is 1024)

• 2^10 x 10 = 10240

• 1024 is an approximation of 1000

• 1024 represented as binary is 10000000000

• 10240 represented as binary is 10100000000000

• 10240 bits = 10 Kibibits

• 10240 bytes = 10 Kibibytes
OCD shows that this world is really wonderful!
