The first CPU I wrote code for was a National SC/MP, which doesn't
have an endianness, since it never deals with more than a byte at
a time. The second was a 6800, which is big-endian. That's definitely
more convenient when you're hand-assembling code! I can see the
advantages of little-endian when you're implementing a CPU, though.
