It isn't a matter of like or dislike. It is the simple fact that when novices
start searching for info for PICs the overwhelming amount of info is directed
to the 16F84. Based on this information many novices come to the often 
erroneous conclusion that it's the best part for the job.

But Microchip has moved on and there are many many parts that are bigger, 
better, cheaper, and easier to program from both a hardware and software stand-
point than the 16F84.
