Completely agree. Although the open source movement has plenty of great engineers and is great at solving complex software problems, it doesn't tend to have everything else that great software companies have.
UI designers, customer researchers, graphics artists, strategy teams (to set an overall vision) e.t.c. tend to be under-represented compared to other software companies.
I also think that open source software tends to be less innovative, as 'design by committee' isn't something that is followed inside for-profit companies with closed software.
