If you have SLAs with your customers, it would be pretty much mission critical to have SLAs with your vendors as well, open source is great until you are stuck in the middle of the night with a major system down and no vendor support...

You could pay for some kind of 24/7 linux / nodejs infrastructure support if needed I'm sure.

And if you are talking about bugfixes. Microsoft? That .Net or OS bug ain't gonna be fixed in a hurry just for your lil' shop.
