You're right. Not everyone wants to get under the hood. I used to tell my students about being at my cabin in Canada, about 350 miles north of Toronto. As I pulled out from the gravel road, I saw a man standing beside a brand new Lamborghini Countach with the hood up, arms folded. I'll bet he kinda wished he had spent a little time under the hood.

Hi Jack
Personally I really enjoy fishing and have been doing so for over 45 years now, and think that everyone should learn to fish, but fishing is not to everyone's taste :)
I think that many (most ?) people don't want to be programmers (novice or otherwise), just users.
Those who do the programming and want to share their efforts with those who can't/don't program could post their .HEX file to a "well known" place, eg files section on this group (and the .HEX is tiny), and then post the URL to the file to the group.
I do think that perhaps the files section should have a firmware folder/directory into which programmers could place their .HEX files for others to download.
