Curious Kindle description on Amazon
I was reading the description of the Kindle on the US Amazon web site, and was rather puzzled by this line:

Quote:
More than 120,000 books available, including more than 98 of 112 current New York Times® Best Sellers.
What does "more than 98 of 112" mean? 98 and a half? 99? 100? If it's 99, then why not say "99" rather than "more than 98"?
