I find it pleasantly easy and usually fun. The things I have trouble
with I'd have trouble with on any machine. It's the mindset that most
programmers are having trouble with. It appears to be a big jump for
some to realise that the whole machine isn't there only for the one
program they are working on.  And then there are clutzes like me who
can't keep track of structure pointers >4 levels deep :^( But neither
do I call myself a programmer :^)
