I wrote "maybe" not "for sure". Every CPU has it's advantages and
disadvantages no doubt about it.
Some people swear on CISC some on RISC, some on superscalar architecture and
so on but...
Hmmm no need to explain further. Everybody has it's favorite!
btw: Why the [to],[from] directive in the assemblers is so common for the
Intel CPUs?
Isn't it logical to use [from],[to] like I go from source to destination of my
trip or whereever?
Thought developers intend to make as antural as possible environments for
programmin' ?
Hmmm however... Better I stick to my TI-idea :-)

I'll check 4 it. But I assume it's all I need what I can find there (I didn't
look yet...)
