Far nicer than other Intel designs.
This is
easy, due to the awkward braindamage of typical intel designs.
Did we already talk about iAPX432? ;-)
Even when coding assembler, an AVR is much nicer to code for then an
i8051. I did only a single project in i8051 assembler. It was
disgusting. Then I saw the light of AVR assembler and never looked
back. That was about 10 years ago. Now we have avr-gcc and so I don't
care much about the actual uC architecture. Today the availability of a
good, free C compiler toolchain + cheap and simple ISP programmer is
more important to me.
avr-gcc + avr-gdb + avr-libc + avrdude = fun. Lots of it. :-)
