I like debian stable because it's not constantly pushing untested security updates that break your graphics driver.

Serious question. Why do I have to download 500mb of outdated packages so I can download 500mb of current packages? What is so hard about automating a process to build a current image every other week or so, and clearly label it as current rather than the official release? Every bit is sacred when AT&T is your only option.
