On bios and ipmi updates, you can download and apply them yourself. For advanced bios updates, there is a licence you can purchase, as you do with Dell and HP. On warranty, they are in line with the industry standards: https://www.supermicro.com/support/Warranty/ On open source, they work with the community, well enough to have a cetified list of compatible systems: https://www.supermicro.com/support/faqs/os.cfm When you are in business, you do not want to go back to the drawing board each time. You need a platform where to build your own services. If you have to develop disk and keyboard drivers, and you are told off from the support mailing list, then the OS is worth nothing to you. OpenBSD is not ready for enterprise. Your faithfull troll.
