No, I wouldn't worry about AIX.  The first 64 bit computer for AIX is
out, SP2 became SP (because support for SP1 stopped <g>) and it runs
deeper blue, the Olympics webserver, and truckloads of companies want to
use the SP for it scalability.  Your SP is too small?  Add another
Frame.  BTW AIX is nr 3 in U*ix land after Sun & HP, and just sold its
500,000th unit.  If you need midrange, and the AS400 is a tad cumbersome
to you (or doesn't deliver the scalability), AIX is the way to go.  Do
3D design : go CATIA and AIX.  Need a Notes server, that's AIX for you. 
Tivoli management of your Computerpark, here's AIX.  Oh, AIX now runs on
the newly U*ix branded S/390 servers.  No, AIX is alive and Kicking
(butt).
