I recently exposed a coworker to the joys of 8051 programming. It gets even
better when the newbie realizes not only does he have to be familiar with
the registers, he also needs to know each bit in every SFR does, as well as
knowing which SFRs are actually implemented in that particular chip.

Or even better, i threw together an AVR disassembler in Python last month --
one has to get intimate with what each bit in the word means.
