> Consider the capabilities that the 16b machine ...instead of wining about lack of machine capabilities. ...the kind of programmer that want to write an unelegant and just working program in a short amount of time, I do hear you, but one of the things I love about virtually all modern hardware is just how much capability it puts within the reach of totally naive and quick development strategies. If I can inelegantly solve two or three problems in the same time I can elegantly solve one, then that strikes me as a net win (at least for the people that need problems solved more than code written.) I don't mind pushing the hardware and searching for elegance, but I'd rather be forced into it by the necessities of the problem I'm trying to solve.
