-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: RIPEMD160 I actually like the numbers to be spoken as whole words even when the commas are missing. That's where the Accent synth drives me nuts when I display free space or do a 'du' on my box and those numbers are not punctuated. I find it harder to quickly parse a 6 or 7 digit number as a string of digits when I'm interested in knowing how much space is being used on my machine.
