You will find the first program written for the 84 under NT is at:

you will find it under Nigel Goodwin's software.

Hardware? any David Tait type programmer.

PICmicro Programmer Kits: 4 Types Available.

DT001 SimmStick Programmer Kit.
As well as being a full PICmicro development platform, this programmer
has a 4PDT switch which allows you to program a PIC16C/F84 in a
SimmStick and run the program straight away. Yes, a load and go
operation. This means you don't have to move the PIC16F84 chip from the
programmer to a target board as they are one and the same. LOAD/RUN.
Straight away!! Hey, we can even do it now with the new all flash
PIC16F877 40 pin chips. And you don't need a SimmStick, as you are able
to use this principle with your own target board.
