how to convince that debian is one the three major choices for a stable server environment?

[Γιώργος Πάλλας <gpall@ccf.auth.gr>]

(it is, isn't it? :-) )

So, yes, we are moving on from our 10year experience with gentoo, and 
are searching for our new environment. From my personal experience I 
would say debian stable - any hard evidence to support the claim? Server 
OS statistics? Statistics for stableness? Bugs? Any white papers showing 
debian's superiority?

I am also doing my google research, but I'm asking if someone can point 
me to something like real hard evidence...

Thanks,
G.
