I think you'll find this is a very naive view.  If Canonical want to 
*have* a business and not rely on donations from rich sponsors, then 
they really have to get a lot more money from MegaBankInternational than 
from LittleShopOfHorrors, and I suspect that if you read the small print 
then being supported requires that you are honest about how many servers 
you have.

What would be interesting is to see if its how many Ubuntu servers, or 
how many Linux servers.

In any case, in what way was this price on the web site unclear?:

Server support (per server) 	$750 (USD)* 	$2750 (USD)*
