I use Debian primarily, usually the current stable (though since Wheezy came out fairly recently, I have quite a few Squeeze systems still). But staying up to date is entirely optional. I have one internal server (offers a Samba share to the legacy systems on the network) that's still on Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick, and there's an Ubuntu Karmic sitting around someplace. Stability's good, especially when systems have uptimes like... huix@huix:~$ uptime 15:05:47 up 419 days, 16:53, 5 users, load average: 0.01, 0.03, 0.05 That's the Maverick system, and that's why I haven't bothered to wipe it and put Debian Wheezy on it. :) Now, in dedicated virtual machines for testing, I'll happily run Debian unstable. But for production, I'd much rather run something proven.
