Linux is nice but there are some sites that would not pass.  I do not think
I would ever use Linux on a site that needs 99.999% uptime.  However, that
is mostly a need for unbelievable hardware and automated fail over
capabilities.

Lot's of listers have presented nice lists but if you don't have Linux on
your list then your experience is woefully incomplete. Long live Linux! The
war is on and those who don't join this camp soon will find themselves on
the losing side! :-)

I did HPUX. I did Solaris. Now I'm doing Linux and life is wonderful.

My experiance is just the opposite :

1. Solaris
2. Solaris
3. Solaris
4. HP-UX
5. AIX
6. Digital Unix
7. SCO Unix

Solaris has much better features and is more reliable as per my experience.
For eg. only Solaris provides the option to use Asynchronous I/O for file
systems
as well as raw devices. Asynchronous I/O on HP will b used only while
accessing
raw devices.
I think that the Oracle software is primarily written on Solaris these days.

Well, I will put in my two cents since everyone else is.
1.HP-UX
2.HP-UX
3.HP-UX
4.Solaris


Oracle works equally well on both of them (IMO) but HP provides you with
better support, better hardware, better reliability, etc.  Course, none
of that is free.

All in all I have not been disappointed per say with Solaris (which
is a good thing cause I will be working with it ALOT from here on
it) but I have had far less issues with HP.

Another shot across the bow:

Hp-UX if you like to sleep at night
Solaris if you want speed and sleepless nights
Aix if neither of the above is of any value in your life
Linux if both are valuable & $$$ are a consideration
