Vast question :)

Debian is an operating system with a strong emphais on software freedom.
Phylogenetically, it stems with Unix and its derivatives. It can be run
on many hardware platforms, among which most Intel and AMD-based "PC"
machines, as well as on Apple computers. It includes powerful command
line and graphical user interfaces, on both of which EMBOSS can be used.
The Debian-Med project aims at bringing free software for medecine an
biology to Debian users, and distributes pre-compiled packages that
allow to run EMBOSS immediately after download.

You can find more information on the following pages:

http://www.debian.org
http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-med
http://packages.debian.org/sid/emboss

(I realise that I wrote the above paragraph in a very "for a broad
audience" style. Please do not feel offended if the only answer you
needed was just "Debian is a Linux distrubution"! )

Have a nice day,
