    Does anybody have an idea how can I get access to an AIX box? Some kind of "hosting" account, or renting a system for a period of time, or whatever. Suggestions are more than welcome, thanks in advance!

    You could always try EBay. There are usually workstation class AIX boxes on there for $300-400.
