Why is it FAT client? Why couldn't it be Chubby Client or Portly

I expect most of the folks who don't move up to 7.5 will have to
refer to the Admin Tool as the "True Windows Administration Tool" to
differentiate it from the "Developer Studio."
I couldn't resist....

In case you run into it, you'll also see folks use "WAT" for Windows
Administration Tool. Now that it's called "Developer Studio", that
acronym will most likely fade away.

Thanks, David. It appears I just hadn't run across the acronym
before.

Jennifer,
The desktop client has been referred to by many names over the
years. WUT is actually an old name that has been around for a long
time. Probably was used much more in the past than fat/thin client.

** I've suddenly realized that "WUT" stands for "windows user
tool." When did we stop saying "fat client" and "thin client" or
"mid tier?"
Are "fat" and ""thin" outmoded with today's networking capabilities,
or simply offensive with today's caloric-challenged society?
Someone please answer definitively, because "WUT" threw me for a
loop for a couple of weeks, and I felt really dumb.
I'm seriously confused at the loss of the fat client.
