Isn't that bad an article. "IT system support" is always paid for, regardless of the licensing terms the software was procured under. Commercial closed source software often has poor QA, however that may still be better than an "open source" project with proper level of formal QA and ticket management (like mozilla [0]), compared to an "open source" project with a good QA process, like GCC.
