Well, gee, I bought the one which wouild run my applications, and
the one which was advertised as being network oriented. 

Why should i need to spend hundreds of pounds on a (ridiculously
bloated and inefficiant) server operating system just to be able to
use my applications which are sitting on my machine which just happens
to be in the other room or on the other side of the planet?

Where do you want to go today? Doesn't matter, you have to stay in
that chair _there_.
