"Ubuntu is an end-user distribution"
Not true! Ubuntu has a goal to create the best Linux desktop ever, not the same thing...
-Ubuntu will support there server version for 5 years (=what big companies wants) and support there Desktop version for 3.
-Ubuntu is also getting certified on more and more applications (=what big companies wants)
-oracle supports Ubuntu for there express version (just wait for 6-12 months and all products will be certified)
Why should Red Hat care? Well Red Hat is the big dog in "Big company" linux, and they start to take stuff for granted...
There support has seriously dropped in quality (IMHO) since 2004...
And to really get big (like microsoft big) you need to have a great desktop that my mum can handle, Ubuntu has that -> Red Hat hasn't...
