Hp P4 Desktop

what are the advantages of using a server and not a normal desktop as a server?
I have a newer P4 from HP/Compaq with Windows2k Server installed. I also have a client server app installed that is accessed by 4-6 clients also P4's on an Ethernet 100 LAN. ODBC connections to a SQL Server database. What benefit would I gain by using a "Server" instead of my little "desktop"? I guess what I am asking is: What are the differences between a piece of hardware called a server versus a hopped up and maximized desktop?
From a hardware standpoint, most servers differ from workstations in several ways. Typically, a server will have much greater storage capacity. Additionally, many have redundant power supplies so that a power supply problem won't bring them down, and many have RAID arrays for the hard drives, which, when set up using RAID 5 with hot-swappable drives allows the server to stay up and running even in the event of a hard drive failure.
