Learning AIX from zero.

Dear Sirs:
Good afternoon, my name is Javier
.
I´m new to Unix and I am working as a Linux Server admin in an ISP from Argentina.
I´m want to in learn AIX, and find interesting information about it on some IBM Redbooks.
I would like to know if is there any possibility to Virtualize an AIX enviroment on a PC computer, so as to be able to take hands on this Operating System and practice with it, or if the only way to do it, is buying an RS/6000 Server and installing AIX on it.
Is there any other more low cost model that support this Operating System?
Thank you very much for your kind attention Sirs.
Best regards,

Javier

mdbFontSize(5)							 The m17n Library						    mdbFontSize(5)

NAME
mdbFontSize - Font Size DESCRIPTION
In some case, a font contains incorrect information about its size (typically in the case of a hacked TrueType font), which results in a bad text layout when such a font is used in combination with the other fonts. To overcome this problem, the m17n library loads information about font-size adjustment from the m17n database by the tags <font, resize>. The data is loaded as a plist of this format. FONT-SIZE-ADJUSTMENT ::= PER-FONT * PER-FONT ::= '(' FONT-SPEC ADJUST-RATIO ')' FONT-SPEC ::= '(' [ FOUNDRY FAMILY [ WEIGHT [ STYLE [ STRETCH [ ADSTYLE ]]]]] REGISTRY ')' ADJUST-RATIO ::= INTEGER FONT-SPEC is to specify properties of a font. FOUNDRY to REGISTRY are symbols corresponding to Mfoundry to Mregistry property of a font. See m17nFont for the meaning of each property. ADJUST-RATIO is an integer number specifying by percentage how much the font-size must be adjusted. For instance, this PER-FONT: ((devanagari-cdac) 150) instructs the font handler of the m17n library to open a font of 1.5 times bigger than a requested size on opening a font whose registry is 'devanagari-cdac'.
