I did a bit of Assembly language programming, but it was not something I would have encouraged, then.

Today’s processors can do so much more on chip that it’s amazing. Assembly could likely help that, a lot.

I only use Windowz PC, but the computer bargain on the year is the M4 mac-mini at $549. That has 256GB NVMe and 16GB RAM. During Prime Days last week it was only $500. If I bought one, the only thing I would add would be 1TB external NVMe for storage. Price about 70-80$

DisplayPort is the way to go and this mac-mini can run three displays simultaneously VIA>>>

Thunderbolt 4 (USB-C) ports (located on the back)
One HDMI 2.1 port
