this is potentially a very dumb question: does everyone refer to gigabytes (of memory) and gigabases (of nucleotide sequence data) both as Gb in text? Or are there differences (GB and Gb)? Either way it's a wee bit confusing: especially for a beginner. Would it not be better to refer to gigabases as 'giganucleotides' (GN) when writing? Does that make sense to anyone else? Or am I the only confused beginner?
