    Although it's been one of the leading distros for over 20 years Debian has remained famously hard to install. That has led to multiple paid Debian-based distros which tried to make it easier. Early examples were Libranet (which added rich menu-based system administration), Storm Linux (which put a graphical desktop on it as standard), Progeny (which added a graphical installer and admin tools), and Corel [11:54] schestowitz LinuxOS (which made it look and feel more Windows-like, with for instance the first graphical tool to set or change screen resolution).

    Debian defined some of the characteristics that would become hallmarks of paid-for enterprise distros: a slow and conservative choice of tried-and-tested components, plus a relatively sluggish release cycle. It was mainly intended for servers and the desktops of people who knew what they were doing and didn't need much hand-holding.
