I'm a desktop user myself, and my plan is to stick with Etch for about
a month or two until Lenny is at least mildly settled; Upgrading right
away will cause problems usually, so I like to wait it out.

Lenny gets a lot less bugs than Sid, but the bugs it does get usually
stick around longer, which can be a pretty bad thing sometimes.

It's really up to you. Each user can decide how he/she wants to run
his/her system, and that is what makes GNU/Linux great.
