Have you worked in commercial UNIXes?

I have some HP-UX, Aix and Solaris war stories.

Yes, SunOS4, Solaris and HP-UX. Never had any problems but then again we pretty much kept the hardware alive after vendors had deployed everything. Also Oracle on a VMS cluster which was a joy.

To be honest windows (NT series) operating systems were pretty trouble free in the NT4 era. The masses of fragmentation and numerous paradigm shifts were what broke it all for me.
