You can write a million programs and still not prove anything. What
needs to be done is to prove that assembly is a commercially viable
option.

I guess Betov would agree. And I guess thats why I am the fool.

:(


There is also the problem of momentum to overcome. I see a trend going
towards VHLL languages. Pretty soon, programming is going to be done
with drag and drop components with little actual knowledge required.
