Both names were inherited from Borland. And, Classic Server is based
on the original Interbase architecture, before Borland bought
Interbase.

Also, both architectures have their place, even once FB 3 is out with
SMP support in SS. Apparently, Classic Server is a good starting point
to implement cluster support, either for FB 3 or a in a future version.
