Re:How the 8086 processor's microcode engine works by GeorgeTirebiter on Saturday December 03, 2022 @03:10PM (#33846827)
The 1st pdp-11, the pdp-11/20 did not use microcode.

I believe every other pdp-11 was microcoded.

ALSO: these days, assy lang makes it easy for compiler writers to express programs written in a high-level language!

It's software, all the way down..... almost.
