AIX is still head and shoulders above Linux anyway. It looks more like Linux is an IBM PR compaign for Power hardware.

Its good for what it does...serve but it has a lot of non standard stuff about it that makes portability to and from other Unixes/Linux a challenge. And if you want to just recompile your app for a different platform, Linux will do a much better job than AIX.
