Can we assume the profits go to Canonical? If so, I may just get one.

Nice! Next thing I would like to see is a 3 DVD set containing all of the repositories (instructions for making this yourself are here.
How shiny. Do these come with any sort of support?
system requirements for kubuntu are wrong, someone should fix that.

Canoical is making/selling the discs, so the profits can only go to them.
Well, since Jane Silber is announcing it, I would expect Canonical to be receiving the profits
