Please excuse the dumb question, but:
Is this still the recommended way to upgrade from Sarge to Etch?:

That page makes it out like using aptitude is somehow better than apt-get.
I've never used aptitude, only apt-get, I'm quite comfortable with all the
apt-* tools. It apt-get dist-upgrade just as good?
Thanks,

The aptitude interface -especially with the integrated 'help', is far
from hard to get on top of, but how I used to do it is:
'aptget update'
'aptget upgrade'
Then change your sources list in /etc/apt/sources.list through an
editor, then:
'aptget update'
'aptget -u dist-upgrade'
That should do it.
