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?

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 :^)
