Having created many NCP programs I can tell you if SNA would have won in
the corporate world:
*the networks would be nearly impenetrable
*it would be nearly impossible to have you phone or other devices attach to
the corporate network
*Users would hate it
SNA was a far superior network but it lost to simplicity. With simplicity
comes the ability to exploit it. Just as any 100Mb token ring would crush
most Ethernet networks it lost to ease of use and cost.
That said a properly secured IBM i instance is far better than any windows
(even properly secured) system.
