- This is because AIX for the IBM RT is officially dead, as of June 1990
- (or perhaps '91, my memory fails me at the moment). There is some
- suport to be had at a local level (and it is minimal and sporadic), but
- the folks in Texas only grok the RS/6000 these days. I believe that
- hardware maintenance dries up and blows away by '95 or '96.
-
- Regardless, we won't give up our RT. After all, it helps keep the office
- warm, and provides a nice white-noise effect. :-)
