Another Important different is that RAC is best High Availability solution in case of System/Instance Failure where in case of HP or Veritas Cluster, all of the resource get stopped on live system/node of the cluster and then get started on second node and hence user will be affected. But in case of system or Instance failure, there is seamless transition of the User session in RAC

ak,
As I understand it, an HP cluster is 2 boxes that have the capability
to access the same disks and data but only one can have the oracle
instance running and accessing the datafiles(active). Sort of like a
high availability option.
With RAC both boxes can access the instance and datafiles at the same
time.
List, Correct me if I need it.
