AIX->Win2000/XP?

Here's the setup:

IBM RISC/6000 server running AIX

The server currently feeds 4 dumb terminals and 2 pc's via multiview 2000 software emulator.

Now, the server is about 9 years old, and need to be replaced. There is not enough money to buy a new IBM AIX server to replace it, and I need to know if it would be possible to relace the server with a windows based server, linux based server or OS X based server. And if so, could anyone provide any links to information regarding such a migration. Ideally the new setup will be 6 new PC's running the multiview 2000 emulator, and 1 windows server feeding the program to the pcs.

anyway, thanks for any help, and if you need some more info, let me know and i'll reply back.

cheers
