0 a unit of computer information consisting of 1,048,576 bytes:
1 a unit of measurement of computer storage space equal to 1,048,576 bytes
2 a unit used for measuring the amount of information that a computer disk can store, or the size of a computer file:

Does he also realise that what he calls broadband—512 kilobytes per second—is far lower than the general definition of broadband, which is 1.5 megabytes?
It has two computers, one with a capacity of two megabytes, the second with a capacity of six megabytes.
There will be larger facilities of 2 megabytes per second and more.
Presumably clearer pictures can now be developed with the given megabytes.
The port administration system comprises seven computers, each with disk storage capacity of 1,008 megabytes.
I have no doubt that in years to come we will be discussing the delivery of 5 to 6 megabytes per second.
I hear all the talk about floppy discs, megabytes and all the other jargon.
