Testing hassles: stable now

A month or so ago, both my desktop and laptop had independent heart attacks, so I downgraded them from testing to stable.  Was a pity to lose that cutting-edge and slightly unstable toy to play with, but a relief to now be able to get other things done.
The desktop still has a number of testing and bleeding edge packages installed, namely mesa and related ebuilds.
The laptop was exhibiting some weird behaviour--both Firefox and Amarok weren't working--so I reformatted it.  :)  It works fine now.
I guess I'm going to focus more on the stable experience of Gentoo from here on!
