I have been using Debian Squeeze on two machines every day for the last 
year, its very stable. Debian Squeeze was frozen back in August so you 
shouldn't see any major issues developing. Ubuntu is based on Debian 
unstable/testing anyway so if you are using testing you are pretty much 
as up to date as Ubuntu.

As a rule of thumb for Debian I would use Stable on servers and Testing 
on desktops.
