Comment on The Art of Assembly Language (1996)

Comments

Memories! Thank you for digging this up. 1996 sounds about rigtht - that's when I actually read the thing, and that, alas, is around the last time I did any serious assembly. Switching to Linux, and later on to 64bit, and all sorts of complexities cropping up, nd portability becoming more of an issue, I sort of lost touch, but it was wonderful while it lasted. Squeezed some screaming speed and ridiculously microsized code out of 486's and early pentiums.

I stil squirm when I see anything javascripty labelled 'asm'. Because, you know, it's not.
