It doesn't surprise me. If you choose the stable flavor, Debian is a 
very stable server. That's why I am planning on using it for our first 
Linux mail server at work. At home, I have a Debian file and print 
server, hanging 2 HP printers off it and using Cups to share the 
printers to a Linux box, and XP laptop, and a G4 Mac.

I would love to see the server farm, I love that stuff.
