I was one of those punks that held on to my Amiga till it was obvious that the best technology *wasn't* going to win. But I absolutely loved assembly language programming on that machine. Huge registers with simple names, flat addressing, rich instruction set, lots of indirect addressing modes, not to mention the API was fun to work with as well. What do you think of the 68000 series? Was it a good CPU from the standpoint of a programmer? Jonathon -- Microsoft complaining about the source license used by Linux is like the event horizon calling the kettle black.
