Re: The RedHat corporate spinners won't fix this
"Little they return to the Open-Source world, maybe one of them could make good on the false promises of RedHat and maintain a good distro for company use that doesn't cost and arm and a leg for small businesses."
That's essentially how Ubuntu came about: Mark Shuttleworth made lots of money from Thawte, and then used some of that to develop a polished distro based on Debian. It's still free to anyone who wants it, and therefore useful for startups or non-profits, although, like any distro, if you are a medium/large company using it at scale, it makes sense to buy some support.
