Open Source for mission-critical systems (slightly OT)

[F. Duran]

- Amazon, Google, eBay, Yahoo and every other web
company? 
- financial institutions (don't remember the name of a
particular bank but there is at least one) & stock
market organization (was it NASDAQ?)
- local, provincial and national governments: Munich,
Extremadura and Andalucia (Spain), Brazil...
- tech companies: too many to mention (IBM...)
etc

There are so many companies that succesfully use open
source software that maybe the question is: what
reference companies are NOT using it?
