Exception IMHO should be made for everyone for office applications, I 
think that those in stable are rather long in the tooth.

 From what I have read about Gnome 2.4 on slashdot it sounds buggy at 
this point.

IMHO unstable is far more stable and bug free than any Windows 
enviroment, though there are a very fews issues. For servers itwould 
also have security issues that computers maintainer would have to deal 
with. But for desktops I think that stable is inappropriate as most of 
the software is rather dated.

Unstable is lets face it about the same as the current versions of most 
other distros. The unstable version of the desktops show amazing 
progress, and I think it would puta bad face on linuxshowing off the 
rather old software.

I agree that testing is inappropriate in all respects for an Install-Fest.
(everything of course IMHO)
