True, but it does provide vast majority of software regular user needs, and then some. If you're gonna need something that isn't apt-gettable the odds are that you're savvy enought to be able to find & install it anyway.
Exception to the rule are those packages Debian & co distros deem non-free, but couple of google searchs usually provide the instructions just fine. Same couple of google searches you'd need in windows as well to find the software you need.
Let's see. System -> Administration -> Synaptic package manager -> Enter your password -> Select search from toolbar -> Enter apache -> Right click on apache from the packages list and select "mark for installation -> Accept the additional dependencies by clicking "mark" -> Click "Apply" from toolbar.. and then just mod the config text file.
True, butt-load of trouble, simply apt-get install apache on command line would have sufficied:/
