You're right about you Microsoft story I guess. I can't be sure to get all patches (although they like me to believe I do;-) But I would pay for a patch-only contract though in cases as mentioned above. The way it is now, all you get are the security patches (and -SOME- recommended ones, mostly because they are deps in a way). I feel patches should be available to an Operating System. Even if the OS itself is free. But to a reasonable price.
