IBM Calls Linux "Logical Successor" To AIX

Posted by timothy on from the in-line-with-recent-events dept.

pknoll writes "Though it probably won't happen soon, IBM is talking about Linux eventually replacing AIX. The article at Globe Technology states there are IBM folks working on 'chips for 2007' systems, and the viewpoint projected is described as 'multidecade,' but it's an interesting view into the future of IBM and Linux."

    10 years ago... people would ask ... Linux whats that ?
    5 years ago .... Oh that hippie thing the nerds use ?
    2-3 years ago ... I know its good, but does it do windows ?

    Interesting analysis, but the reality is that is was filthy stinking hippie shit then, and it's filthy stinking hippie shit now. It's software used by the asshole of society too fucking lazy to go get a job and think the whole world is a fucking handout. The kiss trees and fuck dogs and they will all die from aids sharing needles in their open source commune. Meanwhile, the rest of the capitalist world will continue making money SELLING software and when you come to use for free healthcare because you all suck the same dicks we'll just put you into camps and gas ya.

    Now, go take a bath I can smell you from here.

    IMHO, AIX never made it big time. I always hoped Linux would keep growing, but now we find out it just the next AIX. I'm very sad.
