IBM doesn't really have a viable UNIX workstation. They sacked their entire 3D graphics team a while ago. If you enjoy the vintage feel of CDE cerca 1996 I guess you'll be quite happy. If you don't, you'll probably prefer telnet, or even better, use the networking support in the hypervisor to let you directly access the system console over virtual serial.
