I don't know which one is worse ;-) But still it's better than "4004 inside"

8051 is based on an even worse 8048... I don't like the idea of backward
compatibility ;-)
I hate 8051 !!! Even those speeded-up ones like Dallas 320 etc.
But there are other solutions:
1. Mitsubishi - a lot of 6502 based microcontrollers, also with USB slave
controller. But rather hard to get :-(
2. Microchip - USB enabled PICs.
3. Philips - no, I'm not going to mention 8051s ;-) Philips makes some
interesting chips - like PDIUSBD12 (full speed USB slave controller)
4. National Semidestructor - USBN9602. Something like PDIUSBD12.
