Can you give us more info. Are you interested in Linux or Unix? Any specific verisons like Solaris, AIX(IBM), HP-UNIX(HP), iBSD, etc? Is this going to be something that you want to put on a machine that you own? What platform will this be x86, RISC, or PowerPC?

Here is some options:
Linux: Best place to start is at the distro's website (www.redhat.com, www.slackware.com) and www.tldp.org

Unix: There are free versions (FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD). All the others have costs involved.
