I'm confused about this software and have a general question. I've
come to it from GNU Cash saying it needs gnome to install and run. Is
this gnome going to alter my Mac OS X desktop in any way? I don't
want that. I only want to check out GNU Cash. Not even sure I'll use
it. Is Gnome easy to uninstall? Thanks.

Take a look at Fink[1]. They seem to have packaged Gnucash (take the
gnucash2[2] package). They're using a good package manager so it should
be easy to clean up your system afterwards if you decide that Gnucash
isn't for you.
