New 'Server-Grade' iMac with Next-Gen Xeon Processor Coming End of 2017

This strikes me as a bit of a contradiction. I get why one might chose a more expensive Xeon processor and I suppose I can sorta understand needing a display for a server. But surely the iMac, so far at least, is all those things where desktops differ from servers (and for that matter Workstations).

It's almost as if Apple figures that seeing as they already have the mechanical design for iMacs down pat, they might as well wedge a Xeon in one. That doesn't really seem like Apple's usual MO to me.

I suppose a more accurate description might be a "workstation grade iMac".
