+Installation
+============
+
+Virtual Machine
+---------------
+
+If your are not running Debian_ on a particular machine a :ref:`chap_vm` is
+provided as a convenient testing and evaluation environment.  After a
+few simple steps to setup the virtual machine, you will be able to use
+NeuroDebian_ as an integral part of your existing working
+environment without any sacrifice.
+
+
+Debian
+------
+
+Having been exposed to the wonders of NeuroDebian_ you are no longer
+satisfied with your previous choice of operating system?  We would
+recommend installing Debian_ to replace or complement (dual-boot) your
+existing OS.  Please visit `"Getting Debian"
+<http://www.debian.org/distrib/>`_ to obtain the images for your
+hardware architecture and then simply add |repos|.

+The Team
+========
+
+Our main goal is to provide neuroscience FOSS for Debian_. Thus the
+whole project would not be possible without the work of over 3,000
+Debian_ developers and contributors who are as enthusiastically pursuing
+a similar goal.  To add our share -- Debian_ packages of FOSS for
+neuroscience research -- the `Experimental Psychology Debian packaging
+project <http://alioth.debian.org/projects/pkg-exppsy>`_ was created
+to formally join the forces of
+
+* `Michael Hanke <http://mih.voxindeserto.de>`_
+* `Yaroslav Halchenko <http://www.onerussian.com>`_
+
+A number of packages that are now provided within the NeuroDebian repository
+were not packaged by our team, but similar Debian teams.  Therefore we want to
+express particular gratitude to `Debian Med`_ and `Debian Science`_ teams for
+making their efforts.
