There are various bits that need to go in various boxes. Where do the gOS
Cloud <http://www.thinkgos.com/index.html> operating system (or Ubuntu
Netbook Remix for that matter) and Cisco's unified computing offering fit in
the Application/Platform/Infrastructure stack? They don't, hence we need
something [marginally] more complex to cover what's above and below... enter
the "Servers" and "Clients" layers.

If for the sake of your presentations/documentation/whatever you prefer to
drop these then go for your life, but they do make sense (and are important)
to some of us.
