Some twenty years ago you could just order stuff on the Internet for free. Big companies were giving away cool things: I remember you could get IA-32 programming manuals from Intel at zero cost (and zero shipping costs).
Me being stupid me got this. A whole package of IBM DB2 8.1 for AIX (32-bit) disks including learning materials.
I still wonder what to do with these.
There's zero chance of me stumbling upon an AIX-supported hardware.
