ARM Interrupts

Hi there

Looking at several processors at the moment but ARM7 and Coldfire in
particular. I like the popularity of ARM and associated tools, but cant get
over the fact that the interrupt structure within them (only two priority
levels) is pants. Coldfire has 7 or 8 nestable levels.

I would appreciate anyones view on this.

Cheers

Andrew
