File sizes shown in the same unit

Mixing KB, MB and GB makes it hard to quickly judge how big files are just by looking at the numbers. You have to spend a couple of brain cycles to compare 26.1 KB and 28.4 GB...

        I've thought about this as well, but there's such a huge disparity between filesizes that it may quickly become meaningless.

        My backup disk image is 180 GB, next to a file that is 0.000238 GB - is this file small enough to e-mail?

        Or, maybe the file is 0.243 MB (e-mailable!) and the backup image is 184320 MB - can it be moved to my empty 80 GB firewire drive?

        We'd love to hear any suggestions for how best to implement this.
