The assembly language of the original PDP 11 (before all the ugly
extensions, etc., got tacked onto it) was so simple, logical, rational
and elegant that I can't imagine a Lisp interpreter for it written in
anything other than assembler. The only architecture I've ever seen that
even came close IMHO was the Texas Instruments 9900.
But the *real* Lispniks of the day used PDP 6/10 "mainframes" -- how
were those implemented?
