I'm looking to learn a embedded system. PIC seemed pretty interesting. However, looking for a starter kit to learn the ropes I wasn't sure which to get.

this one seems interesting. Anyone have experience with one they think might be good?
Ultimate goal is to be able to automate things like temperature and pressure on some of my personal projects (I'm graduating with a CHEM E degree this year). Possibly some CNC work way down the line. PIC having floating point support gets some major points and really would simplify several things later down the road, however for this purpose I have no idea which is best.
I have a lot of C programming experience and so any system with a C compiler gets major bonuses.
