Thanks, this seems like a nice book. As it happens, I've been learning ARM assembly in the recent weeks; just for fun so far. I've mostly used some instruction set references or ARM cheatsheets I found on the web. Having written mostly m68k assembly before (well, 6502 too...) I knew a bit how to read ARM assembly but I wanted to learn it throughoutly and gain such insight into the instruction set that can only be ach…
Much like I was hoping that PPC would dethrone IA-32 back in the day (I think Linux, OS/2, and NT were all just about ready to support it) but it seems economies of scale are everything.
