Plenty of pointers, the next stage is to look at the specification (resolution of A/D etc., no. of channels etc.) and choose your device from there.
Of course you need to choose your preferred programming language to. The PIC is backed up with endless compilers (BASIC, C, PASCAL etc. etc. and varieties of each) - lots of code examples readily available including PID control. www.melabs.com for a good (and low cost) PIC BASIC compiler (PicBASIC Pro). http://www.ccsinfo.com/picc.shtml for a fab (and also low cost) PIC C Compiler (PCW - windows environment).

The stepper motor you can drive directly using some transistors, or some L297/298 if you need more performance or power.
