> how to get started in PIC's. I have found a kit
> from http://www.picknpoke.com which seems really good for

> pretty easy (I HOPE). Also you get all the hardware
> and simulator software. Has anyone any experiences with
> this kit and also could I still use the hardware with
> another C compiler if I gave up learning ASM.
