Why I am Leaning Toward Debian

,----[ Quote ]
| Debian gives you options with complete freedom to do with them what you want. 
| It is a stable, conservative distribution which is great for servers. If you 
| want to use it on desktops, use their testing and unstable branches, or try 
| out Ubuntu, Linux Mint, or SimplyMEPIS. So sticking with Debian ecosystem 
| gives you everything you need out of an open source OS.
