- mindcrime 11y agoThe term "midrange computer" to me is more synonymous with "minicomputer" (ala AS/400, etc.) than it is with "desktop tower PC" or whatever. My guess would be that most people would interpret it the same way, given that "midrange systems" is a pretty established and well known term: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midrange_computer https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midrange_computer
