I work with 16 series pics all day long and can't stand 
them. I'm looking to switch either back to Motorola 
(I'm one of those old schoolers who was forced to 
memorize every nook and cranny of the HC11 in tech 
school. hee hee). What's up with not having any access 
to the stack? Brutal, just brutal. No compare 
functions. Ugh. It's a little better if you're using a 
higher level language but I code almost everything in 
straight assembly so I can't stand 'em. I'm using 16 
series right now because the 16c745 has built in USB 
support which i need. But again, who makes a modern Mcu 
for usb development but makes it eprom? Just plain 
silly. I'd be back to motorola but HC12 is overpriced 
and buggy imo. I do like the A/D and PWM modules on the 
16 series though. I need stack access though. Making 
stuff re-entrant via tons of cheezy save variables and 
common ram to keep the banks straight and etc is not 
what i like to have to be thinking about when i'm 
coding. i like to be able to think about the code, now 
how I can write it to overcome the processor's glaring 
shortcomings. Rant mode off! :D
