Subject: Does AIX PS/2 1.2 run on the PS/2 Models 90 and 95?

We're looking to obtain a new PS/2 machine to easily handle builds of
large source-code trees on the PS/2, and the new 486 models,
the 90 and 95, immediately came to mind.  However, the person
who was trying to order this was flummoxed by the person from
IBM who couldn't clearly say whether or not these machines ran
AIX PS/2 1.2.  The comment was "it runs, but it's not supported".
Whatever that means.

Can anyone inside Locus or IBM state something more plainly on
the ability to run vanilla AIX PS/2 1.2 with the latest patches
these configurations?

Thanks
