Parallax spent a lot of marketing to give people the impression that C or asm were too hard for an introductory user, and you needed their expensive BASIC Stamp product to get started. I believe this is misinformation.
ASM/C is extremely hard to learn when you have no background to work with. I found it extremely difficult to learn programming languages until I understood the architecture behind what I was working with, which takes a lot of studying.
