You should include Sun (and compatible) Sparc stations in your
list. Prices for them is not very expensive as compared to
advanced configurations of PC (now some PC or Mac models are
much more powerful with Pentium or PowerPC than many Unix
stations sold only three years ago).

And true commercial version of Unix for PC exist:
you can use Sun Solaris 2.5 for Pentium or PowerPC
and use the same software as for many Sun Sparc stations.
