No, server is a software concept, a program that waits and responds to
inbound calls, the X-server is just that. A client is a program/user
that pokes at the server and get responses.
It's just the pc hoard that thinks a server is some machine handling
databases, mail, files, printers or whatever.
It has noting to do with what is there or here.
