HP-UX 11i, at least as far as I know, is only availbe for use on HP Superdome systems right now. It is not available for any other systems. I don't know when it will be available for everything else.

HP-UX version 10.20 and 11.0 are still generally available and supported by HP. 10.20 will be going away in 2003, but there has not been a date set yet for when 11.0 will go away.

Hello,

the rule for support is usually, that HP supports the last 2 releases. When 11.0 was introduced they stopped officially supporting 9.X.
So by that rule you can lean back till you hear rumors about 12.x, which I haven't heard at all.
