That's not quite true. Here's the word from one of the developers of PS:

6.0 and 7.0: up to 30,000 x 30,000 pixels, file size on disk up to 2GB
CS: up to 300,000 x 300,000 pixels, file size on disk up to 2^63 bytes
(that's more than 8 billion GB) for Large Document Format (PSB). Some
file
formats have format-defined limits less than that, such as TIFF being
limited to 4GB
