( sorry, i'm a bit bored, attempting to write some code, and the ideas are not flowing. The cat is meowing, the breadmaker wants attention, the washing machine has stopped
anything but write code)

Hopefully, not because of a bug in the 8051 core controlling it! ;)

Sure does. I also love the old 8051.
We still bake ours without them thar fancy machines.
If it made a puddle or went out with a bang you might have your weekend project cut out for you :-(

I like it too! What other micro has parts like these?
Analog Devices ADuC845:
NXP/Phillips P89LPC935:
Silabs C8051F520:

I don't have an oven in the kitchen, the last time I did have one, maybe 20 years ago, it smelt of motor bike engines, mainly because I only used it to heat up the crankcases so the bearings would drop out.
so a bread machine it is.
I just wish the Spanish made descent wholemeal flour :(

Why would you think that?
No he didn't. He made fun of the buggy Core Duo while praising the bug-free 8051. I responded by saying that I like it too.
I think he also made a sly references the fact that some folks tend to assume that just because the embedded systems they work on have multi-gigahetz x86 processors or high-end DSPs that must mean that everybody uses them. They ignore PICs, 8051s, ARMs, etc. and have never even heard of Elan/ EMC, WinBond, or SunPlus -- any one of which easily sells a thousand times more processors per year than the entire x86 market (that's units sold; dollar volume is smaller and profits are much smaller).

Sorry, Colin Paul Gloster
By the time Core 2 is >30 years old, if it is still in production (which it won't be), I would expect it to be fairly bug-free as well.
BTW: Core 2 is 291,000,000 transistors; the transistors per bug ratio is still pretty good ;)
You probably weren't married then. Or your wife is also a biker.
Hmm, one of your hypermercados should have it. But it could be expensive. It took us several years until we had adapted to what's available here in the US. Like trying to make cheese cake when all you can buy is cottage cheese.
