Instrument Options
040 Increase acquisition memory to 8 M on half channel and 4 M on all channels
080 Increase acquisition memory to 16 M on half channel and 8 M on all channels

I just wonder what the unit of acquisition memory is, M pts?

I just wonder what the unit of acquisition memory is, M pts?
I have another question about this, on Agilent 8104A, I found, sometimes, memory depth is 1,048,576(1024 x 1024?) pts.
So, why not 1,000,000 pts? Does it relate to vertical resolution(8-bit or others)?
