Commercial Version of osCommerce?

It's a strange question, but does anyone know of a commercial version of osCommerce? The reason being is that timely, knowledgeable tech support is a must for the project I will be using with this software and the open source version only has user-to-user support, right? Of course, any commercial version I select would have to have good tech support.

I know little about PHP but this software comes installable with my new hosting service (one click of a button), and I've heard good things about it. This is an experiment I want to present to my boss (only if it works out) as proof that we need to progress to a PHP shopping cart.

No, it hasn't commercialized.

There have been a few companies trying to re-package Oscomerce and sell it as their own, if you want to call that commercial.

There are some programs that have a paid and free version, where the paid members would receive priority support. Oscommerce has yet to go that route.

Your best bet is to find a design firm that knows Oscommerce well.
