Thanks for the link to the Joe article, Sean.  It is excellent.  It definitely meets the needs I was looking for - not too technical.
 
It seems this whole subject is difficult for a lot of people to discuss in terms that us neophytes can easily grasp.  For a long while, every time i THOUGHT I had a handle on it, someone would use some other term I didnt understand, and i'd take time to figure out whether this was a new term for a concept i already knew about, or a new concept I didnt know about yet.
 
Joe, congrats on a well-written, easy to understand couple of articles on the factory and the DAO concepts, and how they relate to CF users.    Nicely done, and thanks a lot!
 
Cheers

And I responded without changing the subject too - mea culpa! (Can I
claim you're a bad influence on me, Mike? No? I didn't think so!)

"not-too-technical" That's a tough question.

I just searched for "factory pattern" on Google and got over 90,000 results :(

I think this post by Joe Rinehart is very good - and reasonably approachable:
