Not Oracle/Linux, but perhaps generaly interesting:

"Google Bets The Ranch On Linux"

excerpt: Support was another factor in

                choosing Linux, Google said. The
                company has Linux expertise
                in-house, and values the ability to
                look at the source code to correct
                problems, rather than having to
                rely on a vendor. And where the
                in-house expertise fails, Google
                has found the Linux community
                responsive with fixes.
