Reducing Annual License Fees

To all,
My customer is trying to reduce their Annual License Fees which may soon be
approaching $100k.  I suggested that he may want to look into downsizing his
AS/400 to a large 270 and only run MAPICS on it, keeping his 720 for all
other applications (Lotus Notes, Web serving, etc.).  The two machines could
then be connected and made to appear somewhat seemless to the users.  The
270 would be more than paid for in the reduction in ALF.

Does anyone know of any company that has done this?  If yes, we would like
to speak with them about it (good or bad).

Thanks...
