Both are just as stable.
The reason Linux is talked about more often is cost (free). Most Unix systems are expensive commercial products. In addition to BSD variants, Solaris has entered the free Unix arena.
More people run Ubuntu, which is a variant of Debian, not the other way around as you stated, because it is easy to install and maintain. You do not have to be a Linux guru to use it. It does not mean it is more secure. |

| Solaris can call itself UNIX.
Check these: »en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix »en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix-like -- The irony of common sense, it is not that common I cannot deny anything I did not say |
