No I don't care about desktop and similar. All I use is remote console and
automated processes.
The primary usage is g++ compiler with C++ code. The software we have takes
up to an hour to compile and consist of many different modules that needs to
be processed.
I don't know how many lines there are but a safe bet is above 50000 lines or
likely much more.

Well it's not just about money. It's about delivering faster results to
customers.
One current problem is that we cannot automate testing since AIX 5.1 doesn't
support Java 1.5
The automation tools require at least 1.5 so going to AIX 5.3 would do a lot
of good stuff for us.

Thanks.
