Thanks for the insights, folks. I think I'll just stick with Wheezy. The change rate has really gone down and it's been solid for me. -

@gabrielbauman for me, wheezy feels very new. coming from squeeze. i've never tried apt-to-sid, so wouldn't know ;) -

@gabrielbauman rule of thumb: apt-get update is fine; apt-get dist-upgrade - be careful! -

So how usable is aptosid, really? I've been using wheezy for a good while, but it's feeling dated. -

There's nothing more frustrating than doing an "apt-get install random-app" in testing, unstable or experimental only to realize it's broken -

I tested over 10 distros last weekend (to see how they cope) but I always suggest virtualbox for such tasks -using stable. get aptosid man -

@costasg appears i suffer from light-SNS. i've been ALL about debian-stable until the last couple of weeks. I am enjoying wheezy though. -

George, I test-installed e17 last year under testing... To be honest, I'd suggest aptosid to peeps that need «cutting edge» apps... -

@jceb my old saying for sw was "if i can't run it in screen, what good is it to me?" must update for tmux replacement, saying v2.0 -

@zykotick9 It seems like it's not the final version, though. The last Debian changelog entry is from 26 May 2012. -

@losinggeneration maybe ad-aware oriented like desktop version? Or worse? Debian is not ubuntu, thanks Jupiter! :) -

@zykotick9 I also think Ubuntu is doing some interesting things like the recently announced phone OS. -

@lechindianer actually netinstall does require an arrow (to confirm yes on partition creation) ;) -
