> And how much would such a setup be?<G> (Instead of a simple Netware > Server) Oh, far more expensive than any Netware or NT server. At least more expensive up front. The costs even out over time. It's a trade-off. A "simple Netware server" gives you a lot more bang per buck performance-wise, but to bring it up to an AS/400's capabilities would probably cost as much as a 400, insofar as capacity per dollar is concerned. And then there's the whole scalability dynamic. Netware and NT just plain don't scale worth a darn. Unix scales very well, and the AS/400 scales very impressively. But again, you'll pay advanced prices for advanced capabilities. :) kgc
