Logging into an AIX system
Type: Multitasking, multiuser UNIX
Creator: IBM
Architecture: IBM 386, RS/6000, IBM 370
This Version: 5.1L for RS/6000
Date Released: 1987


I just remember that IBM had someone do a port of SYSV to the PS/2, then it was later ported to the new POWER based RS/6000 platform, and even to the 370 mainframe.

As it remains now, it's a SYSVr3 based OS with many enhancements from BSD and Linux.
