I never said this. But ImageMagick is of course required to run LyX. A
wordprocessor is useless when no images can be processed.
there are a lot of other tools ...

Angus, then try to install LyX without an installed TeX system and
try to run LyX ... ;-)
(Currently I have the problem that the Postscript delegation of the
latest ImageMagick still fails and that the graphics conversion don't
work when TeXLive is used.)
ImagaMagick _always_ uses ghostscript when converting ps/eps/pdf files
