Of course it's perfectly feasible, just as it's perfectly feasible to sue Toyota over accelerator problems and Jack-in-the-Box over tainted food. The fact that we've never heard of such a suit over any operating system means that the current operating systems themselves are stable enough for mission critical work. But, let's say I'm running a company that depends on running servers for e-commerce. Would I go with Microsoft, Ubuntu, Mandriva, Red Hat, or who? I'd go first with Microsoft, then with Red Hat, and never even consider Ubuntu or Mandriva, even though I happen to love Ubuntu. Why? Because as a user needing a mission critical OS, I'd always go with the vendor with the deepest pockets. If my e-commerce got damaged I'd want to be able to sue someone who could afford to pay me off.
