It's possible to get open-source software with support contracts. Red Hat and Canonical are two companies that offer this. However, there does seem to be a gap in the market for a company that offers similar support contracts for open-source software running on Windows and OS X.

Completely agree. This is the point. We live in software, everyone else doesn't. "Just please make my job easy, I don't want to know about Github"
