   'Zactly. People who have lived in the dark Windows
   universe are used to *THE* GUI and imagine they'd
   have to seriously take wrenches and hammers to Linux
   in order to  get a different desktop. Instead, it's
   EASY - and if you have the space you can install
   SEVERAL and pick which one you want to run at the
   moment. The GUI is "just a program", not integral
   to the OS structure.

   But KDE on a Pi ... ? K is kind of a drag on some
   DESKTOP PCs ! Oh well, he wants what he wants ...
