1.45875 gigs.

1000 megs=1 gig
To convert megs to gigs just move the decimal point to the left three times.

No it isn't. To get GB you divide MB by 1024

1458.75/1024=1.424560546875

So it is aproximatly 1.42 GB
I'd imagine right now you wish you were a cuttlefish...

Aren't ROMS so small they're measured in KBs?

N64 and PS1 (I have PS1 roms, legit purposes (faster frame-rate in emulators, I ripped the roms myself)) ones are 50-700 mb ;)

yeah, im downloading that n64 rom torrent. its 72% done... it it was taking up my whole laptop hard drive until i moved it elsewhere.

ive downloaded probably 40 gigs worth of xbox games. i dont know if they count as roms though... you need an xbox to play them.
