First, when in the hell have you ever gotten free support because Microsoft admitted it was their problem? It happened to me once, man, ever. MS SQL server due to a bug completely re-arranged a ton of data used for remote distribution of files and data to sales people remotely dialing in via modem from the field. This was a looooong time ago. Oh yeah I worked there for years and years and that was the only time, ever. Second, the part you seem to be ignoring, glossing past or just choosing to not acknowledge because you are trolling, not sure which is ... Both Novell/Suse and Redhat will support you to your heart's content on their enterprise products. You can pay for support just like you do for Microsoft. So what is your arguement for not considering Linux again?
