Nice troll, dude!
That was meant for the PC. Real computers had real software
before that. I consider the PC to still to be 8 bit cpu because
16 bit addressing is the norm. Also while 8 bit CPU's like
the 8080/Z80/6500/6800/6809 are nice machines only MACHINES with
48k+ of memory could do useful general purpose work.
( That 48k includes 8k to 12k OS ).
