Another oddity
that I spotted in a surplus place. Can anyone tell me
about it?
Runs AIX, based on the Power2 Processor (a PPC varient, or maybe it came
out before the PPC). Getting an affordable copy of AIX for one might be a
problem. I've never seen copies of either AIX or HP-UX available, and have
no idea what either OS would cost. Yes, I know they're two different
companies, your point being?
HP's offering FREE HP-UX 10.something for the 9.x customers
to get past the y2k problem.
I'd love to see AIX cheap.
I don't like AIX, but it runs, and seems pretty darn stable, I've never had
it crash on me! Which explains why I've still got a AIX box at work
instead of an NT box... Hmmm, that just made me realize another
justification for not giving it up :^)

AIX 4.x is quite nice. And DAMNED reliable.
