Well I am on my way to buy a powerball ticket, if I hit the big prize I will have the money sometime next week after a ride to the state capital to claim the prize :-)
The point that I am trying to make is that best way to get a lot of attention for ubuntu for a minimum amount of money is to run a contest with a large enough cash prize to get a level of media attention that can't be bought at any price. Obviously you would need to seek corporate sponsorship, for example right now General Electric is running contest for ideas on how to generate cleaner power, they are putting up $200 million dollars in grant money. One of the nice things about "viral videos" is that you can take the money that you would spend on air time and put it into the production of the video. In this case you would put up prize money as way of funding production. I think the Linux Foundation did something similar not that long ago.
