While this doesn't necessarily prove anything. It lends credence to two notions:

- Ubuntu is viewed (more and more) as a serious distro and expected to have staying power
- There is room for an alternative distro and an alternative business model (commercial-but-free vs. commercial-but-pricey vs noncommercial-but-free)

Good news all the way around.
