rshift problem

[John Kacur]

cat rshift.c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main(void)
{
        unsigned j = ~0 >> 8;
        unsigned i = ~0;
        i  >>= 8;

        printf("i = %x\n", i);
        printf("j = %x\n", j);

        exit(0);
}

gcc -o rshift rshift.c -Wall -g
jkacur@athena:~/b1systems/ckurs> ./rshift
i = ffffff
j = ffffffff
jkacur@athena:~/b1systems/ckurs> gcc --version

Am I just doing something wrong? Why aren't i and j equal?
