briefly:

our choice was oracle/NT, based mainly on division/corporate direction which
was based on the strengths of oracle.  widely installed, industry leader,
robust platform.

NT was a no-brainer; the majority of our knowledge is NT. price and
complexity were considered also, even though you have more control over
*nix, the price of boxii to run it on as well as the cost of training and
associated learning curve made *nix an unattractive option.

our user base is small-to-medium so an NT solution should suffice, if we
were larger or more widely dispersed or web based; we'd look harder at *nix.

remember i said brief.

Oh, ha! that is an old one: 


Oracle on Unix is the "only" choice. 
No need to research at all! Just go out and buy one!
