+\section*{Reasons to choose Debian}
+\paragraph{It is maintained by its users}
+If something needs to be fixed or improved, we just do it.

+\paragraph{Unparalleled support}
+
+Mail sent to the mailing lists often gets answers within 15 minutes (or less),
+for free, and by the people who developed it. Compare that to typical phone
+support: hours spent on the phone, for money, only to get someone who doesn't
+know the system well enough to even understand your question.
+
+\paragraph{You wouldn't be alone in your choice}
+
+A wide range of organizations and individuals use Debian. See our Who's Using
+Debian? page for a description of some high-profile sites which use Debian, and
+have chosen to submit a short description of how they use Debian and why.
+
+\paragraph{The best packaging system in the world.}
+
+Tired of old files from software three versions old cluttering your system? Or
+installing a piece of software only to find it causes your system to crash
+because of software conflicts? Dpkg, Debian's endured packaging system, takes
+care of these issues for you.
+
+\paragraph{Easy installation}
+
+If you have heard that GNU/Linux is difficult to install, then you haven't
+tried Debian lately. We are constantly improving the installation process. You
+can do the installation directly from CD, DOS, floppies or even over the
+network.
+
+\paragraph{Incredible amounts of software}
+
+Debian comes with over 25000 different pieces of software. Every bit of it is
+free. If you have proprietary software that runs under GNU/Linux, you can still
+use it - in fact, there may even be an installer in Debian that will
+automatically install and set up everything for you.
+
+\paragraph{Packages well integrated}
+
+Debian surpasses all other distributions in how well its packages are
+integrated. Since all software is packaged by a coherent group, not only can
+all packages be found at a single site, but you can be assured that we have
+already worked out all issues regarding complicated dependencies. While we feel
+that the deb format has some advantages over the rpm format, it is the
+integration between the packages that makes a Debian system more robust.
+
+\paragraph{Source code}
+
+If you are a software developer, you will appreciate the fact that there are
+hundreds of development tools and languages, plus millions of lines of source
+code in the base system. All of the software in the main distribution meets the
+criteria of the Debian Free Software Guidelines (DFSG). This means that you can
+freely use this code to study from, or to incorporate into new free software
+projects. There are also plenty of tools and code suitable for use in
+proprietary projects.
+
+\paragraph{Easy upgrades}
+
+Due to our packaging system, upgrading to a new version of Debian is a snap.
+Just run apt-get update ; apt-get dist-upgrade (or aptitude update; aptitude
+dist-upgrade in newer releases) and you can upgrade from a CD in a matter of
+minutes or point apt at one of the over 300 Debian mirrors and upgrade over the
+net.

+
+\paragraph{Multiple architectures and kernels}
+
+Currently Debian supports an impressive number of CPU architectures: alpha,
+amd64, armel, hppa, i386, ia64, mips, mipsel, powerpc, s390, and sparc. It also
+runs on GNU Hurd and FreeBSD kernels besides Linux, and with the debootstrap
+utility you will be hard-pressed to find a device that can't run Debian.
+
+\paragraph{Bug tracking system}
+
+Debian's bug tracking system is publicly available. We don't try to hide the
+fact that software doesn't always work the way users want. Users are encouraged
+to submit bug reports and are notified when and why the bug was closed. This
+system allows Debian to respond to problems quickly and honestly.
