We adopted Debian after scanning all the distros available grading them
with max. weightage on "Programming Convinience" and "maintainability".
Debian "outperformed" all other distros with a great margin.
1. Programming Convinience : With its abundant packages and its clever
interface (apt) its pretty easy to install a library or search for one.
90% of chances you 'll get in the repository. Moreover all the cleverrer
tools of Programming (IDE, libraries, modules, modes etc.) you 'll get
in the respository and moreso just an "apt-get install <package-name>
does it all for you, you are back to coding.
2. Maintainance : Debian rocks at Package Management. No distro gets
even closer to this. We've had nightmares going thru the "rpm"
dependencies earlier.
All our server/client machines in the Department run on Debian.
