Of course, when they came out with the 86, all of the
competant asm programers went out and got one as
soon as they saved/found/borrowed/stole/came into
possession of a spare $120. And they did it again
when the 89 came out two years later (except it was
$180 that time). But not a single one of them bought
yet another when the hardware revision came out. All
of the dedicated asm programmers we have now have
hw1 calcs. Of course, it is a matter of time before
they all stop programming and enough new people
gain the skills to replace them (toting their hw2 calcs),
but that matter of time will be much larger than the
changeoff from 85 to 86.
