The opposite of “client” is still “server,” not “cluster.” ;-)

OK--I can give ya that one. :)

I guess we're coming at this from two different viewpoints. With my background in clustering, I tend to view servers as something other than a dedicated Office appliance.

Heck, I've built dynamically heterogeneous clusters--where the head node determines whether a particular server needs to run windows or linux for a particular job, and reinstalls the OS on the fly. I'm just not used to thinking about servers when they are in the office environment.

I agree—we all live in our own little part of the world, and tend to over-extrapolate from it :-)
