You can download the Micro C package from:
BiPOM Electronics - Micro C 8051 Development System Software
It has interrupt and timer examples. As a bonus, you get a free Windows IDE.

In my opinion, 8051 is the simplest. Both in C and Assembly. I am using this board:
BiPOM Electronics - MINI-MAX/51-D Single Board Computer with 8051 Microcontroller
and running the free SDCC C Compiler on it. SDCC also has an assembler.

AT89C51ED2 is a good choice with multiple channels of Programmable Counter Array with High Speed Output, Compare/Capture, Pulse Width Modulator (PWM).
I am personally using this board that has AT89C51ED2:

Easiest software package for microcontrollers is Flowcode:
BiPOM Electronics - Flowcode V4 for AVR
You do not need to know any language. It is all graphical. Just drag&drop and connect the blocks with your mouse.
Kennedy
There is another free graphical IDE with built-in ARM GCC:
BiPOM Electronics - ARM Development System
It is all set up. Just install. Easier than eclipse overall.

Re: Free ARM Compiler
There is a free ARM C compiler (GCC) with graphical IDE and project manager:
BiPOM Electronics - ARM Development System
It allows building Linux programs, too:

There are some LCD and 3X5 Keypad examples for SDCC here:
BiPOM Electronics - Software Examples for SDCC 8051 Development System
It should give you an idea about proper commenting and C style as well as idea about how to read the keypad and write to LCD.
Cheers

I am using Zigbee wireless:
BiPOM Electronics - CBL-RS232XB-RS232XB
Cheaper than installing cables. The Digi modules can work as a mesh network and the range can be adjusted based on your antenna choice.
Micro-IDE is free now. I think it is the best graphical IDE for SDCC. You can add your own downloader for your board and there are many free examples.
But I noticed that they changed the link. The new link is:
BiPOM Electronics - SDCC 8051 Development System

There is some information on how to connect LabVIEW to 8051:

Maybe this will help.

Do not assume that the file was successfully opened. If fp is NULL, you will get segmentation fault. You need something like:
FILE *file =fopen("/sys/class/sbc2800/d05/value","wt");
if(file) fprintf(file,"1");
if(file) fclose(file);
Try this. Does it still give segmentation fault or does it...
Re: Choosing a embedded linux board
I am using GadgetPC from BiPOM:
BiPOM Electronics - GadgetPC Single Board Computer with 32-bit AT91SAM9260 ATMEL ARM microcontroller and USB ports
It is nice to be able to use low cost USB peripherals ( there are 4 USB host ports and 1 USB device port on...
