It seems that each distribution has found a niche: Red Hat and Ubuntu are the leaders in their markets, and SUSE is a comfortable runner-up. However, history has shown us that businesses are not content to stay still too long or play second fiddle. So, what will Red Hat, SUSE, and Ubuntu have to do in the new year to gain new ground?

I think vertical initiative is marketese for expanding your existing market, instead of say breaking into new markets. This might imply that by further integrating their products (Desktop/Server) they can increase their user base, customer base, market share, profits or whatever you want to call it.
Being a highly community oriented Distro that sort of thinking at least from a marketing perspective makes sense.
