+"Why is Python Installed on my Computer?" FAQ
+=============================================
+
+What is Python?
+---------------
+
+Python is a programming language.  It's used for many different applications.
+It's used in some high schools and colleges as an introductory programming
+language because Python is easy to learn, but it's also used by professional
+software developers at places such as Google, NASA, and Lucasfilm Ltd.
+
+If you wish to learn more about Python, start with the `Beginner's Guide to
+Python <https://wiki.python.org/moin/BeginnersGuide>`_.
+
+
+Why is Python installed on my machine?
+--------------------------------------
+
+If you find Python installed on your system but don't remember installing it,
+there are several possible ways it could have gotten there.
+
+* Perhaps another user on the computer wanted to learn programming and installed
+  it; you'll have to figure out who's been using the machine and might have
+  installed it.
+* A third-party application installed on the machine might have been written in
+  Python and included a Python installation.  There are many such applications,
+  from GUI programs to network servers and administrative scripts.
+* Some Windows machines also have Python installed.  At this writing we're aware
+  of computers from Hewlett-Packard and Compaq that include Python.  Apparently
+  some of HP/Compaq's administrative tools are written in Python.
+* Many Unix-compatible operating systems, such as Mac OS X and some Linux
+  distributions, have Python installed by default; it's included in the base
+  installation.
+
+
+Can I delete Python?
+--------------------
+
+That depends on where Python came from.
+
+If someone installed it deliberately, you can remove it without hurting
+anything.  On Windows, use the Add/Remove Programs icon in the Control Panel.
+
+If Python was installed by a third-party application, you can also remove it,
+but that application will no longer work.  You should use that application's
+uninstaller rather than removing Python directly.
+
+If Python came with your operating system, removing it is not recommended.  If
+you remove it, whatever tools were written in Python will no longer run, and
+some of them might be important to you.  Reinstalling the whole system would
+then be required to fix things again.
