A Linux user who feels the need for contractually-assured service backed up by a well-funded support operation and faster security updates would be well advised to consider purchasing support from one of the companies operating in that area.

It can be argued that getting a paid Red Hat service subscription in effect also supports a lot of open source development. RH financially supports a considerable number of engineers working on open source projects, as well as providing infrastructure for some projects. (No, I'm not a RH employee)
