Not that I know of, but my experience in "corporate" is limited. I once (+12 years ago) suggested to move one of our products (a load balancer) from a badly customised version of Linux to OpenBSD and I was told to mind my own business, and that was it. In the grand order of things, <insert distro>*Linux and <insert flavour>*BSD are quite similar. They are both open-source; application compatibility is almost 100%. There are obvious technical differences under the bonnet, but your average corporate manager won't spend time and brain power trying to understand. If they do, call yourself lucky. -- Ottavio Caruso
