Comment on What really separates a PC from a server? Mainly the hardware, but I guess software too.

Hardware doesn’t have anything to do with the distinction.
It is just that people enjoy servers that are reliable. So they buy better or specified hardware for it.

Right. Any hardware can be a server, but people choose to make servers out of certain hardware that they find convenient for the task.
