I don't speak German, but I would not be surprised if Grossen Bitter
translates to "large bite". :)

I don't speak german, and I think he's saying something like "big bite",
something like his way of saying Megabyte...?

Did anyone notice that Heir Doctor calls MegaByte Grossenbitter?

It's better as a spoken joke - it sounds like a sped-up speech of "Gross
and Bitter".

Ah! I wondered why Herr Doktor was calling MB "My large please".

"Bitter" also means the same in English as "bitter", "acrimonious",
"harsh". But I do like your interpretation: I must be "The Big Bit" or
the "Megabyte".
