    I am kind of mind blown that people are having problems figuring out T means tons…

      Maybe it’s because it’s so unusual to measure game consoles in tonnes that we look for another explanation.

      And I knew a tonne (1000kg) to be “t”, this capital T is new to me. I just checked wikipedia apparently there’s a fuckton of different tons.

    Or you can use your brain, and use context clues to deduce the correct interpretation.
