Here Here! (one of these days I will figure out how to spell this)

I would go so far as to say that FreeBSD has already gone in that
direction. 

I just directed a fellow to 'man inetd' to make his server a
workstation.

Seriously, Just because you have all that power under the hood doesn't
mean you need to use it all. (hmmm... I am sounding like my dad did
when I had a musclecar :))

If someone can tell me that there is a "more than semantic" distinction
between a workstation and a server, then perhaps my comments are
unwarranted.

If we really feel that we should push a "workstation" then all we have
to do is spin doctor one on the website.
