Megabytes are more intuitive, and portable.  (Cylinders are
non-deterministic, blah blah blah)

I intend to add support for different units in 1.5.x... just
I've got a fair bit of cleaning / porting to do before I want
to start thinking about this kind of stuff again.

But, feel free to send me a patch ;-)  (Against 1.5.x)
