Question

I am looking for a good C compiler for the PIC 16 family, working on Windows.

Answer 1

I have found Hi-Tech to be very good. I'd have voted up Louis' answer if I had a better reputation. I also agree that the PIC18F is a very good alternative. Look for a k-series part as these are the newer, better, and cheaper parts. They also have very low current draw (if thats important to you).
