Canonical focuses on Wall street!!!

[sudoer541]

The title (http://www.workswithu.com/2010/04/05/ubuntu-canonical-focuses-on-wall-street/) says it all folks!!!

[Dr Belka]

Nice. Canonical's mainstreamyness does not bother me.

Awww the thread title lead me to hope that they were going public.

*Phew*
That would probably be a really, really, really bad thing unless we bought up all the shares.
(Consider: nasty shareholders who don't understand free software).

haha you're probably right. Then again, open source companies are getting a lot of attention since Red Hat's success during the recession.

It would be exciting in any case :P

I think its logical the best way into peoples homes is through their work. And in financial services the best way to do that would be to get in the back end and then preach compatibility.

Damn! I was thinking of buying 51% of it and making them drop gimp from the default installs.

[fatality_uk]

There you go, GIMP dropped. See just ask and you get!!!!

Filthy capitalist pigs for sure! I seriously doubt that Canonical can keep the permanent revolution's spirit going on with this attitude.

I think they are doing the right thing. Canonical has 100+ employees and they have families. Plus its still recession and people work to get money.

Sorry, I thought the sarcasm was obvious.

Another recess and Shuttleworth is happy.:lolflag:

I think it's a great idea. Canonical, from what I've seen, is a company with excellent standards and I think Linux as a whole could benefit from this.

Just know that billion dollar Microsoft will do their best to sabatoge Linux with their PR.
