... and you can always mix testing and unstable.  If your testing 
installation is not too old, usually not much fiddling with dependencies is 
involved.  Reading the apt_preferences manual page and some other Debian 
documentation to understand how packages are moved between 
experimental/unstable/testing is strongly recommended, though.

I'd hesitate to use unstable for a production machine, though.  Even testing 
is not always a good idea, since security support for testing is not quite 
as good as for stable.
