You can use a hosting company such as Lunarpages, which if you go into your host account panel and select the fantastico option, they have an automated up-to-date wordpress installation, which also includes a 1-click upgrade for future upgrades. There's a bunch of 1-click installs (joomla, forums, etc..etc) with that too.
As for the new blogger who doesn't know much about coding, I would do one of the following..
A) use a pre-designed template.
B) hire a site designer.
C) find a template style that you like and download it. Don't use that template, but rather see how it works and functions.. then based on that design your own template.
