I, for one, have paid for Linux distributions in the past. I probably need to buy a new Debian t-shirt soon as the last one is fading.
Me too, I was a strong SuSE advocate for many years, as a rough count I would think I have bought at least 4 copies.
For me SuSE was vital to my introduction to Linux, without their excellent manuals and average support (I say average as it has ranged from very good to not so good over the years...at the moment since Novell it has been as good as it has ever been, if not better) I don't feel I would have gotten very far with Linux and may have even given up altogether.
I feel there is a place for both commercial and community supported distributions.
