Debian GNU/Linux is one of the major Linux distributions available today. It is known as the most "open" of the Linux distributions -- for its commitment to the free software principals, and its community-centricism. It is also known for its tradition of high-quality packages and package management tools, as well as its focus on security issues. Debian GNU/Linux® Bible focuses on common apps, GUIs, networking, and system administration.

The Debian Project's Internet-based development model has helped the distribution achieve unparalleled Internet functionality. One of the most popular features in Debian GNU/Linux is "apt-get," which automates free network downloads of all software package updates, making the Debian CD the last CD you will ever need to keep your system up-to-date with Linux.
