Best Explaination I Can Offer

I'll try and answer your questions as best I understand them:

The categories, Client, Server, Networking, etc. are very broad groupings. They cover things that tend to fall into those groupings, (in other words, things that tend to reside on the client, that tend to be server orieented, etc.)

So, for example, the backup product is one geared for backing up a server. The printer, (The Lexmark Optra Lxi+), is heavily geared towards large workgroups. A Jaz drive tends to reside on the desktop. But, none of these categories are absolute. You could certainly drop a Jaz on your server, for instance.

I should also mention that I personally wasn't involved in the survey process, so all I can comment on is the same information that's being provided to you. I don't have any particular "inside" knowledge.
