The 18F series are pretty impressive (my favourite is the 18F27K42 with 128K of ROM), however the 32 series are even more so.
This thread is about 6502 type systems, and a 32 can easily be used to create a BASIC interpreted system, similar to a PET even using the processor to create the video for a VGA monitor.
There's also a later colour version, and then a second colour version based on an ARM controller instead of a PIC.
Historically I'd have loved a tiny 6502 based project board, but that's such a long time ago, and micro-controllers have really rendered them long obsolete.
