Is a wolf a dog?

The problem with asking this now is, if you look at a wolf, it looks
noticeably different from a great number of dogs. But, if you look at an
e3000 on the Internet or your intranet, does it look any different from any
other server serving HTML or XML or running some flavor of scripting or
serving up data via ODBC or even using SQL in a client-server model, or much
of anything else you care to think of?

If it looks the same to all the users and all the business partners, why
should anyone but the internal IT staff who work on it much care what it is,
rather than what it does? This is one case where we shouldn't mind being
asked, what have you done for me today?
