RE: CA/400 vs Netware for SAA

My company is throwing Netware for SAA out the window and putting all 500
PC's via TCP/IP to the AS/400.

     G'Day all,
     
     We're in the throws of doing some network 
     reconfiguration/rationalisation. The dilemna we're facing is this:
     
     AS/400 F45 V3R2 connected via Token-Ring.
     30 odd PCs running Win95 using CA/400 to connect to the AS/400 via 
     TCP/IP and/or NS/Router depending on the level of function required by 
     the user.
     PC also connecting to Novell 4.11 server.
     All devices are located in the same building.
     
     The powers that be have suggested that we throw a Netware for SAA (not 
     the AS/400 edition) server in the middle of all this. I don't really 
     think that this is a good idea and would be grateful for any opinions, 
     advice, horror stories or positive stories
