Debian comes with a whole bunch of applications and programs.  If
you are missing something, please check out http://packages.debian.org/
and find out if it's packaged up for potato.  Commercial apps are
not included in Debian since Debian is non-commercial and depends
on freedom, something commercial (and proprietary, of course)
applications doesn't provide.

More applications are found on http://freshmeat.net/

I don't understand.

There is.  Theinstallation routine always determines the next
step according what it has found.  Thus resuming is possible.
