They could chose Linux instead of AIX on IBM hardware ;-)

A look at the SCO complaint

He he, been hearing that a couple of times lately.But the software to run on Linux on pSeries hardware isn't there yet.
And to be honest, neither is Linux, the highend Unix hardware offers
a lot of things, that just aren't there on IA32 or most IA64 boxes. And Linux doesn't have the code to use these things, like AIX does. I believe it _will_ come over the next years, but there are lot of things like bootlist manipulation, dynamic cpu deallocation, first failure data capture, diagnostics, workload manger, dynamic and static logical partitioning etc etc.
