Actually, it means Officer of the Order of the British Empire. KBE is 
Knight Commander of the Order of the British Empire. OB is a vehicle 
registration symbol for Birmingham (Great Britain), and KB is Koninkrijk 
Belgie. So Bill Gates claim that no one needs more than 64 KB of memory 
is true. Personally, there isn't room in my brain for more than one 
Belgian of memory, as English-speaking patrons (ESP) are doubtless aware. 

What was it the OP (Old Persian) wanted to know?
