I am wondering why an e-book of Dive Into Python is installed by default on
all Ubuntu Desktop installations?

I personally don't quite see the use to most users, even those who wishing
to learn python. I myself downloaded a copy of this e-book from a google
search because I didn't know it was already on my system long ago.

The compressed package takes about half a meg and installed uses a little
over 4 megs. It's not a great savings, but I think there are other things
that could be of greater value to our users.
