You mean like win4lin?  ;-)

There are hundreds of Linux distributions, and Debian doesn't
rank far behind the lead in terms of number of users.  So Debian
is not a marginal distribution.  Companies can expert pressure
from their customers to provide a Debian package.

But, it's true, Debian is about free software.  You won't find us
bundling closed-sourced software in our main archive.  I use
almost no non-free software.  Most of it is for Windows for work,
and I use it under win4lin.  So win4lin is one of the few
closed-sourced apps I use under Linux.
