Joe, Joe, Joe, tell me it ain't so. :-(

IMHO, the problem that most of us, well I can only speak for myself, so
the problem that -I- have with your very well stated discourse is value
for a particular purpose.

I would love to give my users a snappy looking, sexy, GUI but at what
cost and for what gain?  I'm talking about existing users.  Let's face
the facts, new (first time IBM'ers) are -not- within the AS/400 radar.

I'm not going to debate the -how- because you've pointed out very well
that the -how- depends and where you're at and where you want to be. 
I'm going to beg the question: why?
