I think we're talking different markets here. Red Hat and Ubuntu are installed mostly by individual consumers. The Novell-Microsoft deal targets the business market.

RedHat has not been a consumer based Linux for more than four years (Fedora took that Role). Redhat is for Business servers and sells far more to enterprises than Novell does. My last shop was, on the UNIX side, 99% RedHat Linux with only some AIX and Solaris floating around in niche roles.
