What I'd like is a new 64 bit PDP-11.
With a 16-bit instruction stream still, or with wider instructions and
more registers, almost but not quite entirely unlike the Vax?
Ideally with 32 bit ints, 64 bit longs, 32 or 64 bit pointers in the
compiler, obviously more registers, and nothing like the vax. Maybe
I'm too dumb to get it but I never warmed up to the vax.
National 32032 was closer.
