I personally think that if you want the latest greatest

day or so.

and easier to administer and less likely to break as the new versions

I wonder if there is an easy way to undo an apt-get upgrade that will
break my system. If there is then sid seems like an ideal solution for
my desktop PC. I don't mind if I waste a little time or a little disk
space.

PS: I'm considering to migrate from ubuntu to debian and I am
experimenting with it for some weeks now. After overcoming the basic
problems (some obscure HW that wasn't supported out of the box) the
only thing buzzing me is the stability -vs- new-features choice. In my
servers I always go for stable but my desktop I want it more
up-to-date without risking more than it is necessary.
