Hmmm, with that much revenue I guess forking out some of your IT budget for support for your Red Hat or SuSE servers/desktops would be too much to ask. Where can I find your altruistic volunteers that work in your NOC/helpdesk supporting your BSD server/desktop deployment?

Why not convert to the BSDs? linux kernel is really flawed. suse and redhat corporate os are way to expensive to buy. and their testbeds free counterparts opensuse and fedora has software that is not approve for production yet. I would not trust running a multi-billion dollar company on linux servers.
