apt-get update,
apt-get dist-upgrade.
Seems a whole lot better than downloading 2 iso's again.
Stable is very stable...i'm learning to live with it now since last week's mess i had with SID.
Stable for my DVR/imap/samba sever, SID/winXP on the desktop beast...so if SID goes bonkers on me i just go back to winXP for a few days and then run an apt update which usually fixes SID :)
Testing, well....that's sorta like grandma, everyone loves her but no one wants her in their house permanently..
So for me from now on, stable and only get backports of stuff if i really really need..
Cheers.

would it be smarter to just go with the stable release and do an "apt-get -t testing -u dist-upgrade" once i've specified a testing mirror? or should i simply go with the stable release and learn to be happy with that?
thanx for your help folks, i totally appreciate any help you can give me on this
