Oh, I am used to having lots of registers and a really nice OS even though the machine I code on has become very CISC over the years so I find x86 very hard to deal with! Renewed respect for you guys who coded on Z80s and other uProcessors in the olden days.
People say you should learn a lot of programming languages just so you have different ways to look at problems. Coding in assembly on different platforms is a real eye opener. You have to totally rethink how you design stuff from one machine and os to the next.
