I really wanted to take a look at the AIX version of

I don't have any of the original hardware, I assume there was a straight

There may be a "straight unix port" for the System/370, but AIX ain't
it. The earlier IX/370 product may be closer to a straight port, but
is probably even less easily found than AIX/370.
"AIX looks like it was implemented by a pretty smart space alien who
heard Unix described to him by a different space alien, but they had
to gesture a lot because their universal translators were broken."
