    Dr. Halchenko's statement "Discover http://neuro.debian.net and be happy" may sound a bit like a sales pitch, but it is rather good advice.  We have been experimenting with the rapid instantiation of computational environments containing neuroimaging tools from NITRC, and the NeuroDebian repository makes installing and updating the tools through apt-related package managers rather trivial.

+   As a system administrator, I support the efforts of a number of
+   researchers who use fMRI analysis software. I was overjoyed to find
+   the NeuroDebian repository, a one-stop shop for nearly every
+   software package the researchers use. The work of the NeuroDebian
+   Team greatly simplifies the task of providing our researchers the
+   best software available, and I consider the repository a vital part
+   of my professional life.  As a maintainer on the MRIConvert
+   project, I find that NeuroDebian provides a valuable venue for
+   dissemination of our software. It would not be possible to reach
+   the same wide audience without the NeuroDebian repository.

+    Neurodebian is the best solution for researchers in neuroscience.
+    Everybody should have experienced wasting so much time in just setting

+    neuroscience.

+    We use NeuroDebian on a daily basis as it provides a stable and
+    versioned software base for analysis. This is critical as it allows us
+    to maintain data provenance, something that is often sorely lacking.
+    Our collaborators who don't quite have their heads around Linux yet
+    are pointed to the NeuroDebian Virtual Machine, it allows them to run
+    an identical analysis environment to us regardless of where they are
+    or operating system.
