As a side note, I started my unix experience with HP-UX.
Me too (HP-UX8 hehe...) ...
I believe the first UNIX you have truly used is like mothertongue You will always be attached and use it as reference so learning SOLARIS when you have HP-UX doesnt make much sense unless you are talking of UNIX as a user...
My sidenote now:
There is only 3 HP-UX let on my site, we have mostly AIX and SOLARIS now... I can tell you adminitration tasks on AIX are obvious when you know HP-UX , not all that obvious when SOLARIS, SOLARIS compared to the two others seem to still lack of serious administration tools, good side of it is you have to learn UNIX commands (haha...) AIX if you are lazy can nearly all be managed from smit/smitty why lazy? Because if you are, there is not need for you to learn the commands being executed, If you do want to learn then it become a powerful tool to help you see how administration script are written... HP-UX in sam have things dead slow (compared to smit...) so you learn very soon to use command line for such tasks (e.g. LVM...)
