I remain with Debian Unstable as it works for me, but you do sometimes
have to be careful about some upgrades, it being generally a continuous
deployment system. Debian Testing is really not what it claims. I used
to use it but it has more problems than Unstable as a day-to-day use
distribution. Fedora does look good as a Linux/GNOME system, especially
compared to Ubuntu. I think Mint is now the "Debian-based but not
Debian" distro of choice amongst the cogniscenti.
