Re: RE: Master / slave
A client/server relationship always had a different meaning than a master/slave one.
A client asks the server to perform a tasks and gets the results - in the master/slave the master fully controls asks the slaves to perform a task and gets the results.
Yet, the meaning of server itself imply servitude - from Latin servus, which means exactly, guess it, "slave".
The problem is the ignorance of the actual generation of programmers if very deep.
