Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu From the get-go, the company behind the popular Linux distribution Ubuntu - Canonical - has backed Ubuntu with Mark Shuttleworth's money. The big question has always been if Canonical is actually making any money. We have a rather clear and definitive answer to that one now.

All this Ubuntu hate is getting really old really fast.

It's not Ubuntu hate, we are finally getting some Ubuntu realism after all the fanboy hype and the brown stuff is finally starting to hit the fan.

Canonical simply doesn't contribute to a wide cross-section of open source software as a lot of other companies and organisations do, and without that I'm not entirely sure how any services that they sell can be taken seriously. You pay for expertise with a service contract.

If you cant see the hate in "Give your money to someone who deserves it", "Ubuntu is a pig with lipstick" etc then you are living in denial.
