I am a consultant and ocationally recommend IBM hardware and or software solutions to my clients. Sometimes, in my opinion, Linux is the best OS to solve the client's needs, and is thus what I recommend. If this client happens to be a fortune 1000, or a government department, their IBM rep always steps in with a strong request that AIX be implemented instead. How long do you think it will be before IBM sales reps are comfortable with suggesting Linux over AIX?
