Woody with Gnome2.4 Backport or Sarge?




A friend of mine is interested in migrating from WinXP to Debian. I
suggested that Woody is ideal for the most secure, stable environment,
but he balked at the ugly Gnome1.x.

My question is thus: is it better to install Woody and backports of
Gnome2.4, Mozilla, Pan, and other of his assorted favorites, or simply
go with Sarge? Gnome2.x comprises such a large number of packages that I
question the stability of its backport, not to mention the other
additional backports.

Thoughts?  Thanks as always
