Of course apt (which is nothing without the excellent work the package maintainers put in). I like the philosophical stance of Debian GNU/Linux being a big proponent of the GPL. I don't think KDE would even have changed their licence had it not been for Debian. My 2c :)
It makes me feel good inside to run Debian as opposed to commercial distro's
Of course I'd use slackware aswell. But apt keeps me from venturing out.
