    Webster's New World-
    sulfureous, adj.
    1       of, like, or containing sulfur
    2       greenish-yellow

Probably he means superfluous:

   Main Entry: su7per7flu7ous
    Pronunciation: su-'p&r-fl|-&s
    Function: adjective
    Etymology: Middle English, from Latin superfluus,
               literally, running over, from
    superfluere to overflow, from super- + fluere to flow -- more at FLUID
    Date: 15th century
    1 a : exceeding what is sufficient or necessary : EXTRA b : not needed :
    UNNECESSARY
    2 obsolete : marked by wastefulness : EXTRAVAGANT

But I really like "sulfureous" as a "freudian slip" sort of thing.
Perhaps he means that the whole obfuscated distinction between flash and
eeprom, along with any (also obscured) inherent advantage of one over
the other, and all the marketting doubletalk ... really STINKS!
