Not really. Its just a much simpler one. Hence the
availability of 40Mhz clock speeds. And many cost effective variants.

Whatever works for you. But PIC processors will always be available.
And upwardly compatible (within families).
Will the Motorola ones? Why are there no HC11's with more than 2K
of flash? (are there any now? I stopped looking/waiting for one
after I changed horses).

Sure. If you are certain that you can get them in the future.
I have been burned by HC11 allocation problems too many times to ever go
back to Motorola. While I prefer the Moto architecture, their repeated
inability to deliver product in a reasonable time frame forced me
to cross them off my list of possible suppliers.

Long live Microchip, Atmel, Maxim/Dallas, etc. We need choice and
multiple suppliers of a given architecture. Single source is a 'bad thing'.
Burn me once...
