I wouldn't go quite that far, but they eventually
did get a lot of things right. AIX 1.0, though,
was officially The Pits.
What _I_ want to know is the relationship between OSF/1, a.k.a. Digital
UNIX, and AIX. The manual entry for stanza(4) on our DEC system is the same
as OSF/1 1.0, and it's SO badly written that only IBM could have done it.
Plus stanzas are an IBM-ism anyway. I bet the entry is pretty much the same
on AIX systems, too. (I just checked and our AIX doesn't have it. So I
don't know -- it's just a guess.)
