Bit level vs byte level

Name: Anonymous 2006-04-17 16:08

Am I correct in believing that video game consoles such as the NES used graphics and instructions at the bit level?  Why don't modern operating systems use instructions that are only a few bits rather than bytes?  You'd be doing the same operations at 1/8 the scale.

Which is good for what, precisely?
