Dougie, let me tell you a short-short story. Atari once released a 64-bit game console named Jaguar. It came out months ahead of the Nintendo 64, and in terms of hardware was miles ahead of the competition at the time. Atari even ran an advertising campaign with the slogan, "Do the math," implying that since 64 > 32, consumers should buy Jaguar over, say, Sony PlayStation 1.
What happened to Jaguar? You figure it out.
