>I am only referring to the fact that both Fedora (Redhat) and Ubuntu Conical are founded by well known commercial promoters of open source.

And Patrick Volkerding (Slackware) is known for his quality work since the beginning of Linux. Ubuntu is founded by a millionaire and space tourist. It's experience that counts not money.

>and not to mention the fact that ninety percent of the fortune five hundred companies that use Linux on their servers prefer Red Hat.

That's not a fact for anything, it's just a number. Most of the time some decision maker in a company makes his glorious decision and some administrators can cope with the disaster.

Big companies like Juniper Networks, Yahoo, Nokia, Cisco etc. are using FreeBSD too, some of them even OpenBSD for special task. So what?
