Re: What Microcontroller Language do you prefer?
Knowing C for embedded makes you much more employable, if that's your need.

Re: Monitor house current Magazine article Info??
On the Homeseer.com forums, there are discussions among people that have whole-house power consumption devices with 24/7 computer interfaces. Mostly off the shelf products based on current sensing transformers clamped on to the mains wires in the breaker box.

Re: What Microcontroller Language do you prefer?
C is like a portable assembler.
Not so C++, C#.
Not much code written in other languages today.
Zbasic.net is a nifty language for humble 8 bitters.

Re: C Compiler questions

Also a good idea to consider/learn/use other microprocessors, e.g., Atmel AVR. Free GCC compiler and IDE (Atmel Studio). Several free but limited C compi...

Re: Solid State Hard Drive Spec's
The drawbacks are typically higher cost, lower data transfer rate and smaller maximum available capacity but those bottlenecks may be diminishing (if they were gone, we would see more activity in the sales of these).
