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.
