Except for a silly glitch where interfaces lo and eth0 and wlan0 sometimes don't work or stop working, requiring an ifdown;ifup sequence, there's nothing stupid about Wheezy. LOL, try saying that about any other distro. Other people mention that the software is old, but I don't think there's one piece of software I felt the need to replace with a newer version. And even if there were, ./configure;make;make install. Or I hear there are even more Debianesque ways of getting a newer version of a single program. And of course, when you have a problem and "that guy" says "you're using an old version, upgrade to version x.y.z", you ask him whether your current version is known to produce the problem under discussion. I've never used testing or unstable, but speaking for stable, I find it wonderful.
