COMPSOC, as a society that represents over five thousand students to various bodies, both inside and outside of UNSW, have centralised on using Debian on all their hosts. Reasons for this include the fact that Debian will run, without tweaking, on a large range of hardware - of different architectures, and of differing age. This single fact vastly simplifies administration, and makes it easier to centralise many tasks. The quality control and package management are also bonuses for us.
