Tell 'im, Debian "unstable" is so good, year in and year out, that thousands of the most dedicated software hobbyists prefer it AND Nokia (and other Fortune 1000 corporations that may or may not be willing to be named) ship products derived from it, and so easy to customize that its relatives have led the Linux charge into LiveCDs, medical and educational markets, and developing countries -- and that a three-year software engineering effort that few (or perhaps no) corporations could undertake, managed and staffed largely by volunteers (with the sustained support of a few of the usual corporate suspects), has resulted in a new Debian "stable"!
