I don't think "where Python is working".

I've done my job.

I don't believe that low-level hardware hackers need to think that hard core embedded stuff should be done with Python/Perl/whatever. If it isn't a micro-controller, its something more high-level, and I didn't think your question leveraged that.

You may want to rephrase your question, as having extra power and double CPUs to make it 'capable' to run a high(er) level language makes things a microcontroller doesn't quite do that. Items that 'power up' to allow these higher level languages completely take away from their true purpose.

A microcontroller is like a PLC (Programmable Logic Control)... sway from their basic purpose so they accept anything but basic commands, and you may as well have a full-blown computer :)
