it's very stable. for non-mission-critical machine _I_ wouldn't
hesitate running unstable (and I do run it on my home machine). given
the speed of development you get a lot more working stuff in unstable
(like X 4) that is not in stable.
I've been running unstable since potato was unstable and had very few
minor problems related to constant (at least every few days) upgrading
of a system. The only one that rendered my system partially unusable was
X update - I didn't know that I need to get xserver-xfree86 explicitly
(I though my X 3.x would be automatically updated to X 4.x), once I
figured that out it all worked quite smoothly.
for a server that you need to depend on stable is a better option.
