Applications. Real ones for AIX on the 386.

IBM is wasting their time. System V is so far advanced and accepted that
IBM has no chance of catching up. Unless AIX has some very advanced and

Interactive Systems 386/ix System V 3.2 or SCO's UNIX 3.2 (which
is in beta now) would be two good choices. They are both available on the
PS/2 386.
