If the variety of experiences noted here is any indication, Ubuntu still sounds more like a hobby, not to take anything away from the successes of course.
Hobby? Would you like me to compile a list of OS X bugs. Some are several years old and have no public time table or even acknowledgement from Apple.
Read through a similar thread after iTunes receives a major update. Complaints, command line hacks to revert back to an older GUI or behavior. Remember when Apple broke HDMI output via DVI to HDMI adapters on OS X? There was no intermediate fix, you had to wait for the next OS X release.
Ubuntu isn't perfect, but geez, a hobby? You probably didn't mean to be dismissive. Sorry to jump on the word hobby. Ubuntu is a place I can get work done. Just like OS X. Either I find preferable to Windows. All depends on your needs of course.
