The trouble with the big companies is that by the time you know that a system they sold you is solid and stable, some MBA has probably proposed a cost-cutting measure to crappify the latest offering, so anyone you give a reccomendation to will be screwed and hate you forever. The good thing about the big companies is that once you get past their defensive layer of bad technical support, they usually have some good technical support in reserve, which you don't necessarily get with a homebrew system.
