Bull makes a line of servers called Escala that run AIX.
Bull has a strategic alliance with IBM. See http://www.bull.com/aix/
I have no experience with this company's hardware. I do not even know
if it has onsite hardware supported in the areas that I work in.
I have seen references to Bull in IBM AIX copyright notices.
I have used the Bull Freeware site.
As far as getting AIX to run on other PowerPC CHRP hardware, AIX is a
licensed product so you need to look into licensing issues.

Hello all,
I was wondering if anyone has a link or information I can look at that
shows
what hardware platforms, besides those made by IBM, AIX 5.2 or 5.3 will
run
on. I'm doing a little searching but haven't come up with anything
specific
yet and was hoping someone here has already done this.
Thanks,
Geoff Gill
