Every one I've met did "version control" of sorts (keep directories with weekly snapshots, whatever) before they were introduced to VCS. The idea is easy to grasp, the how is quite a bit harder to wrap the mind around... and then you have to learn when to commit a change.

For me, DVCS was (almost) natural when I met BitKeeper for the first time (after using RCS for personal projects, and never getting around to get fond enough of CVS/SVN to go to the rigmarole of installing and using them in earnest).

I've seen no cerebral explosions...
