The single, most important reason here at my place: 
There is no immediately obvious way to install and use it properly in MS-
Win. Without an installer of a readily usable version of pcb and gschem 
geda will have a difficult time at places like here where the majority of 
computers still runs Microsoft products.

By the way, this is similar to why I dismissed Eagle in the first place. 
Although it runs in Linux, it is glacially slow and features some very 
annoying graphical bugs. Too much of a hassle ---> Look for some other 
solution...
