Self-Made Robot Controller?

I've been looking since the end of the 2006 season for information on how to build and program my own robot controller. It seems that every website that tries to do this ignores the beginner and speaks to like-minded college students. All I know right now is how to plug in and put my image on the IFI-black-box-enclosed pic.

Does anyone know where to get good information on programming a pic18f8722 OUTSIDE of the official FRC Robot Controller? Maybe the 68HC11 even? I'm not afraid of buying parts, other chips, making my own circuit boards, etc.

Thanks.
