"When hearing the terms client and server, one might think about big
server-machines and thin-clients. While these associations are correct
when looking at the hardware side of computing, we are looking at the
concepts here. So free yourself from that point of view. One machine can
be server and client. It can serve itself and/or other machines, while
it can be served by itself and/or other machines. We are not looking at
machines, we are looking at processes."

I said it all along :)
