One poster previously mentioned that "Personal Workstation" has an "industry
standard definition."  To that poster:  Could you please indicate who created
that definition?  And what is it?

Personally, I don't see a difference between "Personal Workstation" and what
that poster referred to as "traditional workstations."  By definition,
workstations seem to be "personal" (ie. one on everyone's desk.)  To create
the term "Personal Workstation" would be redundant.

Once agreed that there is only one type of "workstation", the line between
PCs and workstations become an imaginary one that is mainly based on relative
performance.
