Honestly not sure why we went that direction. I'm not in the sysadmin 
group, though I do work with them pretty closely. I think it was because 
of the LTS label, and the fact that the packages are quite a bit more 
recent than Debian stable.

I can say however, that I'm testing the 3.4 kernel right now, and it 
seems much better. I may be able to convince them to install that 
instead if their own tests prove beneficial.
