I run Debian Stable. If I were to run Debian Testing I'd have much more up to date packages available. Call me conservative I guess. On a positive note, Debian Stable, as far behind as it is, has _much_ newer packages than RHEL and some other "stable" or "enterprise" distros.
I have given up with Debian and now use Ubuntu.
All the lovelyness of Debian but without having to hand-roll umpteen packages from source just to get something that isn't 5 years out of date.
I still have to hand-roll a handful of packages, but it is only a handful rather than umpteen.
