After reading a few of the posts, it looks like their are more questions being asked about PBASIC vs SX/B. Here are my thoughts, on the subject. After whining, moaning and groaning, Jon stepped up and wrote the IR remote program for me. Now, after looking at his code, and comparing it to the PBASIC code, I simply did not learn the use of the pulsin command, in the PBASIC application. So, now I can say that if I new the use of the commands correctly (and some other stuff), then I could say that SX/B is just as easy, or hard to learn as PBASIC. So, if you are starting from scratch, then you could dive right into SX/B with no problems, since you will be learning the correct use of the commands. If you have a good grasp of PBASIC, then you could dive right in.

I seem to have confused, ease of use with learning. Ease of use, meaning, the difficulty in typing in somebody elses functioning code, hitting run, and have it work correctly. While learning involves knowing what the commands do or can do. Since, I had my first lesson, with this program, I can say, that SX/B is just as doable as PBASIC. Make sure you know the difference between ease of use and learning.
