Take an old PC - any old PC - I'm sure you can find one for pennies. Download a flavour of Linux - Ubuntu is a good starting point but there are plenty more. Now install the Linux on your PC.
Now Linux is not Unix but it's close enough to start with and has a very Unix flavour to it. You can also find plenty of Linux tutorials on line.
Only one word or warning, once you venture into the dark side you never go back!
Alternatively, get a not too old machine and try a live CD. ( Those will boot from a CD, load into the memory and work without touching your harddisk. ( Unless you explicitly request it. ) They are great for learning. )
