A network is a group of interconnected communicating devices (computers, portable devices, routers, modems, printers etc.)
While a mainframe is a centralized server which provides primary services to a network or multiple networks. Typically, the term 'mainframe' is differentiated between 'server' by way that a mainframe provides service to dummy or smart terminals. Terminals do little or nothing by themselves, and require an established link to the mainframe to boot or function basically.
A dummy terminal has no processing capability and boots off the mainframe over the network. IE, it's little more than a network card, monitor, and keyboard. Most ATMs and credit-card machines are dummy terminals- If the mainframe goes down, they become inoperable.
A smart terminal, which is more common, has it's own processing capabilities. A desktop computer is an example of a smart terminal, as it can function even if offline. Also, typically, smart terminals will load data from the mainframe then store it on the terminal itself, rather than running entirely from the mainframe.
computers are categories into three. these are: 1) Supercomputer 2) Minicomputer 3) Microcomputer
