Optical Media Sizes

In Disk Utility, you can create a new disk image of various sizes. The sizes 610 MB (CD-ROM 74 min) 660 MB (CD-ROM 80 min) are incorrect. I have confirmed this by burning disks. The correct size, in binary megabytes, is the size shown on the label. I suspect that the sizes 177 MB (CD-ROM 8 cm) 2.6 GB (DVD-RAM) may also be incorrect, but I don't have one of these disks to check the label.

If anyone has one of these, would you please let me know what's printed on the label.

(BTW, the size shown on a DVD are in decimal gigabytes, not binary. Again confirmed by actual burns.) _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
