   AIX is Not Unix.  Not any more than OS X is Unix.

   I realize that AIX (and OS X 10.5) *is* UNIX, certified and 
trademarked, but trying to approach it as one would a traditional unix 
(HP/UX, Solaris, etc) is a recipe for heartbreak.

   It's an extremely robust operating system with a very nice POSIX API. 
  Under the covers, it's its very own thing.
