Early AIX is what happens when you give a detailed description of Unix

mainframers who've never seen Unix, and then tell them to implement that
system, and then ship it, without at any point letting someone who's used
an actual Unix system touch it.
My favorite characterization of AIX came from Barry Shein: "It will remind
you of Unix."
My favorite was from David Megginson, whose observation was that "you don't
run AIX, you chase it"
