If it was Debian 'stable' (Woody) then you'll find it's not "recent"
compared to other distributions. I use Debian testing on my desktop
computer and have found that the KDE with that is a lot more stable as
well as a lot more aesthetically pleasing. (No I do not like the
'lolly-wrapper' look of Windows XP.)
Maybe my karma is good or maybe I'm not a 'power-user'. Stability is not
something I've had problems with yet. I was expecting them given that
I've had problems with KDE in the past, but so far it all looks good.
