        <h2>Welcome to Arch!</h2>
        <p>
            You've reached the website for <strong>Arch Linux</strong>, a lightweight
            and flexible linux distribution that tries to Keep It Simple.
        </p><p>
            Currently we have official packages optimized for the i686 and x86-64
            architectures.  We complement our official package sets with a
            <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20080311110003/http://aur.archlinux.org/">community-operated package repository</a>
            that grows in size and quality each and every day.
        </p><p>
            Our strong community is diverse and helpful, and we pride ourselves on
            the range of skillsets and uses for Arch that stem from it.  Please
            check out our <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20080311110003/http://bbs.archlinux.org/">forums</a> and
