Solaris, AIX, or HP-UX.

I am 
bias to Solaris as I am acustom to it, but with the change in direction of 
Oracle, I am considering HP-UX, and due to the cost and performance benefits of 
AiX, I am also looking there. So in answer, I really don't know. I 
would like to say Sun but I don't think they would be my best 
choice.

9i?
I am starting a new company, I am going to be 
building a platform which will use Oracle database as it's 
infrastructure. It will be a very large application and environment If 
all goes well. It will take about a year from start to finish till I 
will attempt to be live. I am debating about using 9i or sticking with 
8.1.7. Since it will be in development, I am comfortable within a year 
9i should just be about stable, and would be nice to already be on it's 
features, specially it's OPS features. And not have to worry about the 
big move over (and probably costly) in the future. During development 
it would be easy to have 8.1.7 and 9i side by side just in case something 
crops ups and hinders our path.
Anyone have anything bad to say about that 
idea? Let them rip, and be honest.

i think AIX is still the redheaded, 2nd class stepchild when versions come 
out. I mean 9i for linux came out before AIX.

Having worked on all 3: Solaris is the most basic (open), AIX is done the IBM way 
(unique to IBM), and HPUX is somewhere in the middle.  They each leap frog one 
another.  I would go for the best bang for the buck.  Nowadays, they are getting 
desperate :)
As for Oracle versions, go for 9i.

Well I think part of that is because Oracle 
knows linux people would be running it far faster than Aix people, most aix 
boxes are production, where as many people are running linux and more quickly to 
try it out there.
