A couple of years ago my nephew had just finished an intro programming 
class. I was showing him LC and he asked how I'd make a button. I 
dragged one onto a new card and put "beep" into the default mouseUp 
handler. It took about five seconds.

His jaw just dropped. He said one of his first class assignments was to 
create a button and it took him three days. I'm sure an experienced 
programmer could have cut down that time, but still... I can't remember 
what language they were using but it sure wasn't LC.
