You've got a bit of explaining to do if you want anyone to consider
your article as anything other than empty yammering.  How is AIX PS/2 "broke"?
And whatever does the RIOS product announcement have to do with that?
If you can elaborate on your experience which led you to believe this,
it would be useful information to us all.

Having used AIX PS/2 for a year now, I wouldn't begin to make such a claim.
It seems like a pretty reasonable merged BSD/SysV OS.
