We went from 8-bit, to 16-bit, to 32-bit, and ended things at 64-bit. Here's why 128-bit CPUs don't exist.

    I expect the engineers are telling the marketing people “No! You can’t do that. You’ll scare everyone that it’s incompatible.”

        64bit cut out 16bit compatibility. So I’m guessing the fear is that 128 would cut 32.
