	Yes, IBM has a version of AIX for the PS/2. The system itself
	uses about 35M, and all the programs (such as the C compiler,
	development tools, and windowing systems use up about 20Mb more.
	I use it at work, and am very happy with it. The documentation
	is good, and the system itself is well implemented.

	BTW, to the person who asked about AIX supporting more than 2
	users: use the devices command to create as many pseduo-terms as
	you want. This will allow several users to access your system at
	once. (I have about 4 defined.)
