Interesting, my own experience is pretty much the opposite. I have been using unstable for something like ten years, and while breakage have occurred I don't remember any really big issues. For myself, either I want a rock stable system I can pretty much forget about, stable. Or something that is really bleeding edge, that is unstable, and sometimes even unstable moves too slow. Testing seems like the worst of both, not recent enough to be useful for me, and not stable enough to just use unattended upgrades and forget about it. Of course, this is all subjective, and I wouldn't recommend or talk inexperienced users into running unstable (or testing) but it works for me! -- Cheers, Sven Arvidsson http://www.whiz.se PGP Key ID 6FAB5CD5
