help me understand the diff between "cutting edge" and "bleeding edge"

I generally hear Linux users describe technology or software as "bleeding edge," not "cutting edge." What's the difference between the phrases supposed to be? I vaguely have the impression that "bleeding" is even more out on the edge than cutting, because bleeding is the effect of cutting and an effect happens after a cause. Also, "cutting edge" is more a common colloquialism used everywhere.
