It's cool that everyone has a JavaScript environment on their machines, but I think that if you want to learn programming downloading Python is not a problem.

JavaScript is great for me when friends ask me: "Hey you know programming right? Show me something on my computer" but if they want to learn programming, I'd just ask them to download Python or Ruby.

The path from HTML to JS to JQuery and CSS in there somewhere seems like a more useful path for most people nowadays. Once they get that, Ruby/Python will come relatively easy.
