I'm not sure if I should speak up (I work for IBM) - but I think AIX is
OK. I work with it on RT, and so far haven't got any troubles yet (:-).
More or less convenient, rather less buggy, performance - OK. Compatible
with Sys.V.2, some compatibility with V.3.0, compatible with BSD...
Well, what info do YOU need actually? Is it working? Yes, of course! That's
what I'm keying this answer on. Is it the best UNIX? Who the hell knows...
Not the worst, I bet...
