Somehow I have to agree .
 If I have the same hardware that can run both NT and UNIX and Oracle. I would also prefer Unix.

 I have five year of experience on UNIX Oracle and two year with NT Oracle ( on several projects) as a DBA , ( but I have also been a Microsoft buff when assembly language was still so pupular and CPM was still alive ) .. So I can't help but compare ...
But again this is just my opinion ...

   But somehow , I know that NT will also cope up with this since Microsoft and Oracle are really continuously improving their products and NT is a very popular product.

   So what ever you choose as the platform , I feel you wouldn't be left out in the dark .
