It's interesting how everything is a "workstation" these day.

Yes, workstation is a bit exaggerated. But it is still more useful to me than stock Android on this hardware.

If it can't run video games, it's a workstation.

Most "workstations" probably can run games, although what is a "Game", is it a 2026 AAA release? is it at low settings? is it the original Doom?

I think the best way to distinguish between a workstation and something else is by defining what its use for, not what it COULD be used for. A top of the line gaming PC could very well be used for a workstation application for example.
