I can hear you. I'm right here. :p

While I agree that Mandriva would have been a good choice, Ubuntu 
certainly has the momentum amongst the linux using public.

 From the article: "Regardless of this deal's origins, Canonical's staff 
is pretty excited, seeing this as a validation not only for their own 
distribution, but for desktop Linux as a whole."

So, Matthew, how excited are the staff?
