Okay, so we've got a semantic dispute here. Just so we all know what we're
talking about, why not agree on some terms here? For lack of a better word,
PC can be a generic word for a small computer, as typified by the IBM PC.
Workstation will refer to a machine that is, regardless of size or hardware
configuration, used by a single person. By these definitions, a PC can
certainly be a Workstation. Grok?
