"This post is about the desktop operating systems that fly under the radar of most people. We are definitely not talking about Windows, Mac OS X or Linux, or even BSD or Solaris. There are much less mainstream options out there for the OS-curious." Though the article doesn't go into much detail about the OSes, it is a good round up of some of the interesting candidates.

I've always loved AmigaOS. My first computer was a Commodore Amiga.
I'd add eComStation (forked from OS/2 Warp 4.5x) to the list.
Other oldies that would be cool to play with: Domain/OS, IRIX, OpenGenera, and OpenVMS. Though, the hardware for these is old and scarce, and they're not exactly open, free, or necessarily still in use (EOL/EOP).
