If that's not a loaded post, there never was one.

Look at www.voti.nl for Wouter VanOoijen's Wisp628.  Or look
at www.melabs.com for a whole slew of others.  Or at Digikey
for a few more.  Wouter's is probably the best for a simple
project, since it is relatively straight forward and inexpensive.

Write your code in assembly.  That'll give you the best results,
and let you keep your head in the game.  It's not the best idea
to try writing a high level language right off.

At Microchip's website, you can download MPLAB, the free IDE.
