And you're welcome to install it - I'd be surprised if anybody who does much
with images on this list doesn't use it - but KDE is aiming to be a
complete desktop solution, so why would they install a product that
everybody agrees is _not_ suitable for newbies, when they have their own
product, krita, which is at least as good as you'll find preinstalled on a
Windows system?
