Actually, it's called 'unstable' because it changes a lot, not because it
contains packages that crash. You could consider Gentoo to be similarly
'unstable' but that doesn't bother me for what I do.

Exactly what I do - Gentoo for workstations, Debian on my file/mail/web
server(s). I also ran Debian on a 'multimedia' PC for a while, but quickly
found Gentoo far more suitable.
