That's been my experience, both on projects I have managed, and the SageMath mathematical software. I have here machines running Solaris (both x86 and SPARC), one that runs AIX, and another another that runs HP-UX, although I have not powered up the AIX or HP-UX machines for a few years, so I don't know if they still work. But if there was interest, I could make any of these available by remote access to others using ssh, although due to power consumption, I would not run them 24/7/365. The UK is pretty expensive for energy.
