In binary there are 1024 MB's / GB.
In marketing there are 1000MB's/GB...
Marketing like the 1000MB/GB because the numbers then look bigger. 100 marketing GB < 100 binary GB.
Another thing to consider is that SI units state k = 1000, M = 1000000, etc... Marketing might have it right for once, except I'm a programmer so I tend to side on the 1024MB/GB myself.

Definition:
There are three slightly different definitions of the size of a gigabyte in use:
1,000,000,000 bytes or 10 to the power of 9 bytes is the decimal definition used in telecommunications (such as network speeds) and most computer storage manufacturers (such as hard disks and flash drives). This usage is compatible with SI. HP claims media makers Maxtor, Iomega and Western Digital adhere to using this amount.
1,073,741,824 bytes, equal to 1024 to the power of 3, or 2 to the power of 30 bytes. This is the definition used for computer memory sizes, and most often used in computer engineering, computer science, and most aspects of computer operating systems. The IEC recommends that this unit should instead be called a gibibyte (abbreviated GiB), as it conflicts with SI units used for bus speeds and the like. HP states Microsoft normally adheres to this definition
1,024,000,000 bytes, is the definition used by hard disk maker Seagate.
Therefore: usually 1024 Mb's in 1 Gb....

Generally speaking, 1,000 MB = 1GB, however, if you really fancy being "anal retentive" then you might say, 1024 = 1GB.
Make sure you ALWAYS say 1024, since it makes you feel rather intelligent in front of IT illeterate ;)

8 bits are equal to 1 byte.
1,024 bytes are equal to 1 kilobyte (KB).
1,024 kilobytes (KB) are equal to 1 megabyte (MB or Meg)
1,024 megabytes are equal to 1 gigabyte (GB or Gig)
1,024 gigabytes are equal to 1 terabyte. (TB)
