While Apple fanboys have a rather condescending view of open source software, for those of us outside that little bubble, articles like this might actually be relevant.

Nice strawman. I use and contribute to open source.

I don't think Apple is looking at Ubuntu though, certainly don't think they consider them an opponent in any race.

It may be worth discussing weather or not Apple has Ubuntu or Linux on their radar.

Also, it's rude to call someone a fanboy of anything, I expect that from some sites, but I'd like to see less of that around here. That, and saying anything at all about Ubuntu does not qualify as a statement about OSS as a whole. After all, OSX is full of OSS software.
