note that the raspberry pi lot worked very carefully to put together raspbian as
extremely light and minimal for a very small cpu but intended to be used by
linux noobies as well as others. They chose lxde, it runs with very little extra
baggage and is a very familiar style of interface, the default setup is to use
startx from the console only when X is required, or add it to rc.local if a
desktop and monitor are wanted.

No idea what they have done now they use a bigger chip and have moved on from
their old default install.
