How do you go about getting an AIX server? Do you buy the AIX OS from IBM and get the hardware elsewhere? Can you get both the AIX OS and hardware from IBM? Don't you need Power PC Hardware? What are your options for buying Power PC Hardware? What about storage? How expensive is this usually?
Have you contacted IBM and their AIX sales team?
What did they advise?
The only way I can find to contact IBM is scheduling a call with them. I have scheduled multiple calls with them but they do not ever call me back.
Perhaps you should visit one of their support pages and start a chat with a service agent.?
