    Revenue is a useless metric. What’s the profit?

      It’s in the article.

      Of their $291M in revenue, they reported a gross profit of $258M and an operating profit of $15.5M.

    Considering they’re an enterprise player, and so well-known, that actually seems surprisingly low to me, especially since that’s revenue not profit.

          Nagging for the Pro.

          Expanded Security Maintenance, means:

          With the launch of Ubuntu Pro, all of the packages in Ubuntu Universe get the same security maintenance commitment from Canonical as packages in Ubuntu Main.

            Pro is free for personal use for up to 5 machines. Is there a problem with activating it?
