It has been out for over a year and I have yet to see a version of it that
is stable.  Every week I hear of yet another problem with the latest 2.4
kernel.  I still run 2.2.19 on my main computer.

2.4 on my laptop seems to be doing great, but I'm not necessarily pushing
it to the max (and it does crash in certain situations...)

YMMV, but personally I'm a little leery of the 2.4 kernel as a stable kernel.
