In most cases you probably won't have a choice. If you need to run a specific commercial application, it may available for Linux but not a Unix system, or vice versa. The hardware platform also dictates whether or not you may be able to use them. HP-UX (a Unix system) for instance, only runs on certain HP machines. Similarly, some hardware platforms may not be supported by any current Linux distributions, meaning you may not be able to use Linux on that system.
