"unstable" isn't necessarily as unstable as the name implys. I run all my personal machines syncronized with the unstable tree most of the time and encounter very few problems. Things break occasionally, but downgrading packages generally fixes it. For a primer on converting, check out my Mini-HOWTO at http://www.gate.net/~storm/FAQ/ -- Scott K.
