learning the PIC instead. Its a learning curve either way, neither is

Don't listen to him. 8051s are REAL microcontrollers, not toys like the PIC.


Notice that this response appears to come from someone to young to work
legally.

To be fair, my experience with the Intel parts is quite out of date.
Still it is worth doing some looking around at both what a micro can do
and what kind of support exists for it. Then, of course, maybe you
just like one better than the other.

Look for advice here, but make up your own mind.

Good luck,
