Default debugging checkbox??

I got my son a Hero a couple of days ago and he couldn't get it to sync, same thing - it couldn't find drivers.

Then I got one myself, and being sort of a geeky type, I read the manual that came with it. There was an odd thing in there about checking the USB debugging checkbox under manage applications in settings. I did that, plugged in the cable (on the same computer), and it worked fine.

Apparently the sync program lives on the little memory card that came with the phone, and it needed that checkbox to be able to install???? Surely that wasn't the answer, but then again it worked...

Also I noticed the UI is a little odd, you can't click on the whole title to initiate an action, only on the little button next to the title. So if someone was clicking on the text they might think it was broken when it's really just picky.
