 ===========
 
 Confused about how Ansible fits in?  Here's a comparison with some common tools.
+
 Accuracy is important, so corrections are VERY welcome if we've got something wrong.
 For space reasons, we can't list everybody's favorite management tool.
 
+Ansible mainly tries to be different in it's goals of minimalism, while also cutting across
+the categories of configuration management, deployment, and ad-hoc task firing.
+
+It strives to be a super-easy to use app, requiring no daemons or databases, and having
+a super-simple configuration management language that takes minutes to learn.
+
+Generally speaking, Ansible is answer to the question "why is the world's systems
+management software so complicated?"  The code does not try to show off. It is an 
+experiment in radical simplicity and encourages anyone to be able to easily contribute to it.
