Re: programming in 6502 assembly - reasons to do so
 
Don't forget reason (4): because you want a lot of code to fit into a small
space.  In my experience, code produced from a compiler is inflated from what
it would've been if written directly.  I'm almost fluent in 6502, and I enjoy
programming applications in it.  I haven't quite taken the plunge and
abandoned the BASIC interface yet, but I hope to soon....
