>> Now, since a >> full-screen image should take less than 1M (1024x768x8).... > 1024x768x8 = 6,291,456 I was obviously a little too terse with the original numbers. A 1024x1024 pixel screen has 2^20 = 1 048 576 = pixels (a "computer" million, usually denoted by the prefix "M"). On an 8-bit color screen, each pixel takes 1 byte. Hence a "1024x1024x8" screen takes 1Mbyte of memory.
