I was almost born and raised with the 68000.  The x86 instruction set
looks obnoxious and the encoding is even worse!  However, my assemblers
for those two turned out to be almost the same in size, which felt like
a dissapointment.

Of course, "size of assembler written by random dude" isn't a good
metric for instruction set complexity.
