Well it could be interesting as a test architecture for a new logic family as long as you have wide memory. The Manchester Baby was the first programmable electronic computer and was close to a single instruction computer. It can emulate the single instruction computer with 5 of its 7 instructions: load, subtract, store, skip if negative and jump. The two extra instructions were halt and relative jump. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manchester_Small-Scale_Experimental_Machine http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manchester_Small-Scale_Experime...
