Yeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaah no interrupts. Not very useful as a CPU then! Plus it's weird. If there were a need for a parallel-processing microcontroller then I'd see the point, but there isn't.

 yeahh but it's cool, it has 8 parallel cores!  love the design - no
interrupts, you just dedicate one of the cores to processing I/O, in
idle.  latency is absolute zero.  awesome.
