It was thus said that the Great Doc Shipley once stated:
Off the record, IBM is amazingly unconcerned about OS "piracy", as
long as it's not for commercially-used systems. Their attitude is that
the more exposure people get to AIX, the more hardware and service
contracts they'll sell.
What a concept, eh?
And the fact that the hardware to run AIX is only available at IBM has
nothing to do with this, right?
-spc (I liked AIX when I had to work with it. Beat some of the other
alternatives ... )
