Yeah, signed math is such an incredible improvement. Not to mention the increased data memory! I used to never use 2 byte variables in PBASIC, now I use ints all the time (well, when necessary... which is quite often).
I like C because it let's you do so much, though I agree the single = sign in if statements should probably throw a warning. But I've used it so much now I can usually trace errors like that fairly quickly (or avoid them altogether).
