If he is coming from the consumer space his comment could be directed at the shallowness of past console marketing, namely how "bitness" was used to define a new generation and a leap in power. On the technical front the "bitness" of a processors workflow is relevant, but for average consumers we can blame Nintendo/Sony/Sega/et al for completely muddying the concept, especially when such discussions typically break down into, "The Xbox CPU is 32bit, the PS2 EE is 128bit, so the PS2 is a lot faster". Of course such comparisons are grounds for banning and flogging anyhow
