Because I have the offline iso. Delete the old VM and select KDE for the 
new installation and it doesn't have to phone home. The only thing I'd 
installed on the GNOME version was Vim, so it was no big deal.

The offline iso also has Xfce but my preference is KDE. I used to use SUSE 
because it was KDE when other distros tended to be GNOME. GNOME 2 on Red 
Hat Linux wasn't too bad. GNOME 3 might be acceptable if you could figure 
out the extensions but I'm not into 'ricing' a DE. Just a taskbar with the 
stuff I use would probably be good enough but I couldn't get past the 
stupid Windows 8 (MacOS?) look.
