Unix Newbe

Hi,
First of all. I'm a Unix newbe and never worked with unix (but I have got Linux for a few months), but I'd like to know where to get Unix or if it's x86 compatibel and all those questions. I know...ridiculous questions, but I really wanna know this.
So: Where do I get Unix?
Is it compatible with x86 architechtures?
Can I use it as a 'home system' ?
Is it difficult to install?

I'm sorry if there are many mistakes. I have learned english for 4 years at school (and have to do 5 more Smilie)
