#101187 - With Craig on this one
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Craig Steiner said:
I don't think that it is necessarily reasonable to imply that using the large memory model is an indication of a system that hasn't been properly engineered.

Or, conversely, that using the SMALL model is an indication of a system that has been properly engineered!

"Properly engineered" is about using the right memory model in accordance with the project requirements.

Using the LARGE memory model is effectively just saying, "All data in XDATA unless otherwise stated" - I can't see that this is any worse engineering than saying "All resistors 5% carbon film unless otherwise stated" or "All tolerances +/-0.5mm unless otherwise stated"
