Many thanks to the Arch Linux community for creating what is, in my opinion at least, the most beautiful, simple and usable distribution in existence. Having had to deal with Debian over the past week, I've continually hungered for the sweet simplicity Arch offers. Thank you for keeping the system

I, too, would like to chime in and say a big THANK YOU to everyone making Arch what it is. I started getting into Linux during my first year at university, and a colleague of mine recommended Arch. After using Ubuntu for a while on my new netbook I decided to try Arch, and I've loved it ever since.
