As for Pick Assembler. Never used it. Only was at one site that even had a copy of the Assembler, AlphaMicro.
I way heard that applications written in Pick Assembler ran very fast. Although it was easy to trash the system if you made a single mistake.

What a waste of time.......never used it once.
My teacher was an ex IBM employee that used to exclusively write I/O routines. Last I heard he had gone insane. This gives a bit of insight into the difficulty of that language.
