To your anecdote, I hardly see Ubuntu mentioned in the enterprise space. Ubuntu is a little desktop player like Apple.

  What does enterprise space mean exactly? I ask because I know Google uses their own version of Ubuntu and while I was at Amazon we also used Ubuntu. Do these companies not count as enterprise? Most companies I've interviewed at also used Ubuntu. I guess I'm just wondering if this is unique to the software industry and whether or not that's included in "enterprise".

    That's the best part about these words, they can mean whatever anyone wants them to mean. Also, what I said really shouldn't be counted as any interesting data point. I was simply responding to someone who thought, based on what they heard, that Red Hat was not a big player.

  Ubuntu's focus isn't really the traditional enterprise space, it's the cloud space, where it is doing very well.
