Let me see if I understand...

You want to install differant Unix variants as virtual machines, or use them as hosts to run virtual machines on them? I know you can run Solaris on VmWare Server, but I have not heard of a way to run HP-UX without HP hardware, or AIX without IBM hardware.

Why don't you tell us what you want to do with it?
No offense, but in the last thread you didn't even know that Sun's unix flavor is called Solaris. With the exception of Solaris, all of these OS require hardware from that specific vendor -- expensive hardware.
I don't suffer from insanity, I enjoy every minute of it.
