To wrap it up shortly: it can mean anything.
For example, another story from Nishi went as follows:
Because there is a big resemblence between having a video standard (the same
video tape can be put in the VCRs of different manufacturers) and a computer
standard (the same software can be run on the computers of different
manufacturers), the new computer standard should have a three letter
abbreviation, just like the video standard VHS.
And he came with many other meanings for MSX too.
