All right, I'll be a weenie.  Unless you can see electrons (or holes or
whatever the hell is going on down there), machine language doesn't
look like anything.  At best it's a bit pattern or a collection of
electrical characteristics, hardly a language.  Your description of
it as 1010... is just an abstraction.  But I know what you were trying
to say so I'll go back to talking to myself now...
