You are lucky. My 16gb stick actually has 1gb.

I needed it to copy a file from one computer to the next, that is 1.7gb in size.

If I had gotten a 2gb stick, I may not have noticed it for a while.

I have bought a 8GB stick of Kingston company for INR 500 approx USD10…

I have got just a 2 GB stick :-)

Poor me :-)

Floppies? I thought they were banned. Haven’t seen one in ages. Anyway, all i’d like to say is get all your computer hardware from an authorised dealer, that way if you get conned you can sue kabisa.

Thanks for the tip. I am about to buy my first USB stick after having too many 3.5 floppies fail after a week

Luckily I have not been that unlucky, the only experience I have had was with poor quality USB sticks by Goldstar when I was in Kenya. Luckily here most of the sticks you buy in the computer store are legit, so I plan to stock up when I am here.
Thanks for the tips!

Those tips are very valuable, I am now on my fifth USB stick, Sadly I think in Kenya 90% of the sticks are fake.
