No argument from me. You have to dip into experimental to get the really new stuff. Even Ubuntu with their six monthly updates is miles newer than Sid at the moment. I run Sid with a 3.6 kernel and Gnome 3.6. I have tried Arch and it is a fine distro, I just have more than ten years of usage of Debian/Ubuntu/Sidux et al and I am stuck in my ways.

Things are done too bad in the basic common sense way, even if they don't have so much qualified developers in the team.
That's why somewhat improved "forks" like Linux Mint work better than Ubuntu..

BTW, debian here with (old revision of) compiz. I had zero crashes or graphical glitches.....!
