You can't install HP-UX on a normal PC!

Re: Installing UNIX on PC
It is even possible to have unix installed alongwith a Windows OS.
For this, you may use Linux, SCO unix, Solaris.
I heard sometime back that hp-ux has also got a intel edition, but i am not aware of it so won't suggest you that.
Be sure to take a backup of your current data in case you want to install alongwith your current windows OS.
Solaris offers free Unix OS. Linux is the most favourable for a new user and is available in various versions for free. It also has a GUI thus being very user friendly.
enjoy

If you really want to get into UNIX world including administration, then I would suggest Linux as mentioned by others.

Re: Installing UNIX on PC
I have Window$XP and RedHat7.3 installed on the same PC with GRUB as bootloader. I had previous SuSe Linux also together with Windoze. There is no problem - you have first to reduce your Windoze partition (with Partition Magic for example) and then install Linux in the space left. Perform a disk defragmentation before reducing the Windoze partition - but why not installing Linux alone? - I've got WindowsXP only because my wife need MSOffice :-)
Have a lot of fun ....
