The release notes have not been consistent about which they recommend for a 
particular upgrade.  Both have been recommended on occasion.  

I prefer aptitude because I know what I am doing with it (sort of) and because 
I don't have such a plethora of commands: apt-get, apt-cache, apt-file etc. 
to remember.  But I use apt-x on occasion since it is no longer recommended 
that you should stick rigidly with only one of them.  I strongly dislike 
Synaptic for almost every job.  Each to his own. :-)  That's one of the 
things I love about Debian and Linux.
