what is the difference between router and a device
that does packet forwarding between its interfaces.

example:
can a plain NT box with two network cards (with IP
forwarding enabled) be called as a router ? or it is
just doing packet forwarding. 
in my understanding even routers like say cisco router
does such packet forwarding though it can make a
decision on such packet forwarding based on a routing
protocol. would that be correct to say ?
