Basically because unstable is sometimes a bit too
unstable for me (and
> stable is too old, or at least was a month ago...).
I better put in a vote for unstable..
I've been on unstable for about six months* and prefer to have the
latest packages and deal with (or ignore!) any bugs/wierdouts that crop
up
I have always been able to use my desktop, although lateral thinking is
necessary sometimes
I am no whiz either... but I backup frequently!
As mentioned sarge is now stable so it's about the newest "stable"
distro, this week..
