Jane:

How do you mean "the choice is AIX-RS/6000 best value/performance."? We have about a half-dozen or so Sun boxes and maybe 2 dozen AIX boxes. (Not my choice by the way.) The AIX boxes cost about 5-6 times as much as an equally (or better) configured Sun box. For my money, there's nothing better than Veritas/Oracle/Sun... Why do you feel that AIX RS/6000 is the way to go?

Thanks,
