I am not sure this conversation has any place on test OR can be useful
because it is too nebulous.

a) server is an overused operator and what each responder thinks it
is.. does not match up.
b) used is also an overused operator. How and what Fedora is being
used for is in the mind of the beholder.
c) Everyone forgets the word typically when they have a personal
counter example. It doesn't matter if 99.9999% of the time a sentence
doesn't count... if it counts in one time we latch onto that one case
and ride it to hell and back.
