Thanks for the input.  I will definitely look into choice c).  Choice 
a) had many more positive ratings than c) on Amazon but c) seems to 
be a good start.

I know C from a long time ago - during hobby programming projects and 
in college classes so I've forgotten quite a bit.  Being an ASIC guy, 
learning AVR assembly was quite easy but I don't think it can scale 
as easily to more complicated projects.  

Btw, I see a lot of opinion here about learning C.  My goal is to 
learn how to use C on an AVR - restrictions and all.
