Debian is an Operating System that uses the Linux kernel. Although it is usually installed on desktop computers, it is being used on an increasing number of web servers as well. The reason is that it is really stable, so a server running it won't need to be restarted for months. Debian is also considered to be one of the most risk-free Operating Systems you can get, due to the fact that security patches are released within days after a problem is discovered. This is possible because thousands of skilled developers are working for the Debian project on a voluntary basis and not only do they work on the OS itself, they also provide 24/7 support by using special e-mail lists and respond within twenty minutes to any question. Thus, you will get top-level support directly from the developers who know their own platform in depth, and not from a third-party support team. Debian is also one of several Linux releases with the highest number of packages - more than 30,000. Since the Operating System is completely free to use, you can modify both the core as well as all of the packages in any way you see fit. Also, you won't have to pay any kind of license fees.
