Can't leave this hanging. I worked at Canoncial for 7 years and it was magical. Best job ever. Always got along with the CEO. The main thing about Ubuntu is that before it came along Linux was an extremely niche product reserved for ubergeeks, and after it became something even grandmas and web developers could use. Now I have no idea what they're doing with Ubuntu Pro since I haven't been involved for the last 5 years, but if it's anything like all the social media outrage of the past that surrounds anything Canonical does, very little of what you're read on the internet is probably true. That said, Debian is a fine distribution (developed by mostly the same people). You're unlikely to have a problem using it. -- Stephen M.
