Well.. I must say I'm in parts surprised and in others not..
Debian: Great for stability, but hardware support on modern systems can
be a right pain in the arse.
I would have expected them to go with Ubuntu or somesuch if they wanted
a distro based on nice stable Debian.  As it is I would imagine the
techies might have fun on some of the less vanilla PCs out there.

The City of Munich has chosen to migrate its 14,000 desktops to a free
Linux 
distribution, rather than a commercial version of the open source
operating 
system

Can you guess which one.
If not the full story is here.
