Most people I meet (and installing Linux) choose to install some kind of
Ubuntu distribution. At the same time the number of people installing
Debian is declining as discussed here lately. Something has gone
completely wrong with the PR for Debian, suffering from the success of
derived distributions like Ubuntu. So this little anecdote could, if
used properly, enhance the perceived value of Debian compared to (one
of) it's derivatives!
