I second that, and in some cases assembler is the only way to fly. For a
lot of the higher level stuff tho, C will save you a lot of time. If you
fancy going that route, my advice would be that the only PIC C compiler
worth anything at all is the CCS PICC one 
(http://www.ccsinfo.com/picc-referall.shtml).
The others (especially the 
HiTech one) generate especially atrocious code IMHO. OTOH, it costs a 
hundred bucks or so, and the assembler is free ;)
