Red Hat contributes so much compared to Canonical that you can't even make a comparison.

Is there any chance both the Ubuntu and the Red Hat/Fedora fanboys might simmer down a bit? These comparisons are growing tiring. Almost makes me wistful for the Gentoo fanboys...

(I'm neither the one nor the other -- I run Debian on all my machines.)

My point was that arguing for Fedora on the PlayStation 3 in favour of Ubuntu because Fedora comes with SELinux and better Xen support looks a bit ridiculous, since few people are likely to deploy a PlayStation 3 (of all machines) in a context where these features are required. As far as the ongoing dispute between Ubuntu and Fedora is concerned, whoever owns one of those PlayStations can install Yggdrasil Linux on it for all I care.
