I'm just wondering, EXCLUDING the people who write device drivers and parts of operating systems, AND embeded stuff.... is there any demand for people who know ASM? any applications of it besides those areas?

It is sometimes a + if you know some if you apply for a game programming job. Except that I can't see much use for it. Unless you work for Intel or AMD though.

Well there is a hacky way of using inline asm in visual basic but I wouldn't recommend it. Instead you should write a dll and call it from visual basic.Quote:

Ah. Your post here? I'm "chemicalNova" there. That's what I use nowadays, since I'm not 12 years old anymore and don't think my username is as l33t as it used to be :pQuote:
