The flipside is that with all its weirdness, AIX
is the most
intuitive UNIX(tm) out there. Once you wrap your head around ODM and
the management tools' syntax, 2 seconds thought will get you to the man
page for a tool you need and never saw before, and 2 minutes in the man
page will get you running. "mk<mumble>", "ch<mumble>",
"rm<mumble>",
"ls<mumble>", all with consistent syntax.
I find myself reflexively typing lsattr on my OS X machine now and then.
I suspect it is a disease.
