It's an *initial* state, not a never-changing one. When I first decided
I was going to try Linux, I wanted to try Linux. I wanted exactly what
our download page gives you - a simple link to a thing called Linux I
could download and fiddle with. I'm not sure I wanted my first encounter
with the Linux world to be a boxout explaining to me what KDE and GNOME
were and asking me to pick one or the other. These things are obviously
things I came to learn about later, but they're not the most fascinating
topic to deal with when you first decide you want to play around with
this here Linux thing.
