Default RISC

I am thinking of learning to program assembly on a RISC machine.

Any suggestions as to what type of RISC machine might be best?

I'm looking for something budget friendly and not too hard to learn.

Some of the old PowerPC macs used RISC. Can't remember which
(Something beige). Probably the most accessible, and cheapest. They're
everywhere.

All PowerPC Macs use a PowerPC processor. It's a RISC processor. Most
Pre-Intel post 1994 Macs will be PPC.
