I don't know, but it seems to me that "enterprise" anything is just asking for problems, as far as Open Source is concerned. Corporations have to look at their bottom lines, and this goes contrary to the spirit of Open Source. I don't see any good way around it.
I've noticed, like you, that managers and others often avoid "Free" software. I think it's a result of a couple of factors. One is simply perceived value. If you don't charge for it, people don't think it's worth anything. The other factor seems to be accountability. If you've paid big bucks for something, you (theoretically) have some sort of claim in case things don't work.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
