Killer Cop

I am taking a Cisco certification program right now at my school and I've come to chapter 2 (out of 9) which mainly is about operating systems etc. (Although I've read the whole book, I'm reading it again. :P)
At the end of each section there's usually a little test to clear things up. And here I noticed something funny but also something you would give a thought.
You can see the excercise in the attachment.
As you can see there's four questions and I have answered them all "correctly". But notice the questions :).
The first question declares some user who need a operating system which is easy to use and offers highly structured support. And the answer is "Commercial" license.
I think it's silly. Maybe the most Linux/GPL license based operating systems are bad, I don't know, but Ubuntu supports easy use and also offers structured support. I understand now that Linux/Ubuntu has a hard time to get a big market share when developers like Cisco is teaching stuff like this.
