I've been working with a R3000A now, and I have to say that the total 32-bit architecture is very easy to use and understand. When I took my assembly course that used this book, I wished we were using that language, because it seems so much more logical to use, at least to me anyway:P
Intel's 16/24/32 bit compilation architecture (or whatever you want to call it) just seems so jumbled. Granted always using 32 bit registers does have its downsides, but it makes programming so much easier. Now for the R4000 series....:)
