My dad and I both think apple has been best bang for the buck. I've let that one lapse, but I've enjoyed their originals.

Big tech won't chip in is my bet. My company maintains its own version of Linux that has some specific certifications. Updating that box requires an act of god. My bet is that the companies that can afford to will create their own "LTS" versions that just get older and older, and more broken and exploited as time goes on...

Sorry, long night at work =/
