As a potential MySQL customer, I am trying to find the answer to the question "Can I connect to a MySQL Database on a unix platform from a PC through TCP/IP network? If the answer is yes, what other additional supporting software will be needed on the Unix platform and on the PC? Any pointers, examples are greatly appreciated.

It's easy. All you need on the PC end is MyODBC, downloadable at http://www.mysql.com/downloads/api-myodbc-2.50.html . Instructions on how to set up a DSN and other questions is at http://www.mysql.com/products/myodbc/faq_toc.html .
