Ubuntu is not just marketing hype. The difference is their focus on humanity . It helps quite a bit that they have a clue. But, technically, lots of people in the Linux community have had a clue. Having someone really build on all the clue and make human factors their priority is exactly what's making Ubuntu such a forced for the community.
