80x86 ASM for ASP.NET

Galen Wolffit writes "A chap out in Denmark has brought us an 80386 Assembler for ASP.NET. This interpreter supports about 61 80x86 instructions, though there are a number of limitations. Why? Why not. And when asked about pointers (which are considered evil in .NET), the author simply says 'With 80386 scripting you can still generate memory exceptions and bring the web-server down. It's things like this that make assembler programmers feel powerful.'"

    There is no such thing as x86 architecture! It is a silicon fabrication of the Intel Infidels!
