robbiecow At a very basic level with a lot of stuff stripped out, this is what I think the separating line is:

Unsystematic Risk: Risk involved when an individual invests in a particular firm or industry.
Business Risk: Risk involved when the firm invests in itself (i.e., uncertainty of operating earnings)
