As usual, it depends :-) I have been testing Wheezy
& nightlies for
quite a while in a Vbox instance, mostly streaming media (flash
content), entertainment no issiues that affect my usage.
I also put both on a new Thinkpad this summer, been updating for
several months now with no issues.
I use the cli for all my file management and system config, no auto
mount stuff, TDE as a WM, mostly for kdepim. I don't see some issues
others may have since I don't use any of the KDE utilites etc.
I would strongly suggest using Wheezy, release critical bugs are the
only issues left. I would suggest 3.5.14 (nightlies) instead of
3.5.13.1 + Squeeze depends.
Thanks, Greg.
