All of the servers used to support the development of Ubuntu run Ubuntu, as do my personal servers.

It's true that some of the distinguishing features in Ubuntu are in the desktop, but this doesn't diminish its applicability to servers. On a server, Ubuntu essentially "feels" like Debian, but with some key differences, such as a shorter, predictable release cycle, a predictable support lifetime and the availability of a commercial support relationship directly with the vendor (Canonical).
