Pity that IBM chose PASE to be AIX emulation instead of Linux

You wouldn't believe how many times I've said that to myself! Imagine
the vast array of software we'd have available if PASE emulated Linux
instead of AIX!
But, alas, it's probably not as much as it sounds. After all, virtually
all Linux software is written/tested on x86 PCs.. a lot of it would
have to be specially ported to run on POWER. By contrast, AIX stuff
always runs on POWER.
But, I still think Linux would be better.
