To run KDE, you'll need to install some other software. Why place a Unix-based windowed environment on top of Aqua (which is, after all, a Unix-based windowed environment)? Partly for the experience of stretching your Mac to its limits, but also because doing so lets you run many open-source and free alternatives to Mac applications. It just takes an adventurous spirit and a little ingenuity. But while Unix users can't get Aqua without buying a Mac, any Mac user can use KDE.
And just as Apple placed the glossy Aqua user interface atop OS X, opensource programmers have designed the K Desktop Environment (KDE) to give Unix a useful windowed interface. Mac OS X and Unix both have, at their cores, a command line.
