There's plenty of differences, if you're a sysadmin responsible for
maintaining hp versus sun boxes.  

Working on Oracle overtop the two flavors?  I'd argue its not nearly as 
important
what version of unix sits underneath your database.  We do dev over HP here,
prod on Sun, and really do very little differently in the two environments
b/c of OS differences.  

Here's one of my favorite Unix reference sites on the net: it shows all
the various flavors of unix and what commands are equivalent to each other.
You can select Solaris and HP/UX in the top left and redraw the table
to see the two flavors side by side, to get a feel for how different
their sysadmin commands can be:
