    Once your Debian system is running, you can add new features and facilities   
   to it by installing software PACKAGES -- and you'll seldom, if ever, have to   
   restart!   
      
   Debian uses a cool packaging system "APT" that takes care of dependencies for   
   you -- package_A may require package_B, which requires package_C, and the   
   Advanced Package Tool will take care of installing package_C and package_B if   
   you request package_A.    
   Very nice!   
      
   It's called APT as in Advanced Package Tool.
