Yeah, that's precisely the problem. Though you're right, the M0 at least does fit what I'm talking about pretty well, in-order, no-MMU, etc.


So what, you just don't code for hardware at all?


If I'm going to use technology with several orders of magnitude less power, then I'd at least like it to be open, is all I'm saying.
