I think Lubuntu is selling itself short (Lubuntu as a server base OS??)

You could, but no self-respecting server admin is going to install a GUI
on their server base OS, if they are planning to use a machine as a
large-
scale virtualization host!  They will install a server OS, and manage it
from their workstation(s).  It is likely they will install Ubuntu Server
12.04 if they are into using Ubuntu on servers.

What benefit does Lubuntu have as a real server OS over Ubuntu server??
