I've always thought this is the key.

People expect other people to understand some basic things.  What one has to 
learn is that the computer doesn't understand anything.  One must plan and 
implement things step by step, with very basic steps.

It is when the light bulb in their head comes on that they are ready to tell a 
computer what to do.
