Politics... good ol' politics.  As long as people do their homework like these guys at Humboldt, there is nothing to moan over really.  The most difficult thing I find in promoting open-source is that of removing this preconception that I will always choose OS 'just because'.  If it's fit for purpose, and does the best job (based on what you list as a value/requirement - very easily said though), then there shouldn't be any question either way.
