Ubuntu on servers is a *very* important goal. That is why the Ubuntu Server project exists. I use Ubuntu on servers all the time and find that it works exceptionally well and it will only improve with time. Additionally Ubuntu Server on web servers is important, so important that there is a special LAMP installation path on the Ubuntu Server installation CD. Ubuntu Server also works very well in a clustered setup as well. The most likely place for Ubuntu to enter the enterprise is in the web/file server area therefore even though it was an example it's a very important and relevant goal. This effects Bug #1 in a huge way. If people are running Ubuntu Server LAMP then they are not running MS IIS or Exchange or whatever else. MS having market share is not only a desktop issue.
