It makes much more sense to talk base-2 about computer things, since computers operate
base-2.
Trying to force computer things to base-10 would be similar to walking around spouting
base-7 numbers to
people and expecting them to make sense of it.
Although, base-2 counting of paces is useful. Once your "counter" rolls around
to zero you've gone about
a mile (2^10=1024 paces)
