Canonical is not profitable.
- cwyers 13y agoThe parts that do what Red Hat do are; the overall lack of profitability is because Canonical is losing money on other market segments. (In other words, they're generating money to be invested in developing new products, exactly what the article says open source companies can't do.)
- adwf 13y agoMy bad. Perhaps I should have said sustainable. Canonical is not going to disappear. They may have unprofitable ventures, but ultimately they can cut it back to the core business and carry on going. Got to spend money to make money!
