I love the MIPS architecture... it has to be the cleanest and most beautiful I've ever seen.
Aye, we studied MIPS at Uni because it was the best arch to show the principles without any clutter. The only Assembly I've ever done was with MIPS and I found it to be pretty effortless.
ARM is actually quite lovely too! But a bit more traditional, though the condition codes for almost any instruction is great :-)
68k is the nicest of the CISCs... but to be honest, ASM doesn't really matter anymore, no one uses it and all CPU vendors now use the same tricks to achieve the same results... i.e. more instructions per second :-)
