Outlets have a range of differing systems. For the customer they work as a till, however, because they are computers they are connected to a "back office" server which records all the financial sales by department if required, it can supply a running total, daily weekly monthly and some even yearly. The systems are now more financial variable by accepting debit and credit sales, vouchers and discount cards. They have protocol that monitors the sales of stock, provide reports on how products are selling. They are used to order stock for replenishment, with some communicating directly to a head off system where they compile sales for marketing and purchasing teams and thereafter can actually provide communication for orders to the manufacture.
Some systems will order directly from warehouse for direct to home delivery can be used to return stock in to systems like ware house inventory. Some have a PDCU (portable Data Capture Unit) capability that allows staff to print shelf edge tickets whilst on the shop floor to make sure that the store is legally compliant.

A server is a computer system who's primary purpose (or even sole purpose) is to host files and/or applications and provide access to them on a network.
Server can share resources with various clients.
Servers are often depended upon to provide services which are crucial to an organization. Therefore server-specific hardware is available which is engineered to be as robust as possible.
It is not always necessary to build a server with this level of reliability, and so some servers are built using desktop parts. These machines can still be referred to as a server as the term refers to the systems primary purpose rather than its construction.
The counterpart to a server is a "client." Any computer which is accessing the server is said to be that servers client. Many servers are designed to handle very large numbers of clients, these servers must be very powerful and must have a very fast connection to their network in order to be able to do this reliably.
The word "server" can also refer to a specific application, one which "serves" data or services to other applications. In this case, it is possible for the server and the client to both reside on the same system.
A server is any combination of hardware or software designed to provide services to clients. When used alone, the term typically refers to a computer which may be running a server operating system, but is commonly used to refer to any software or dedicated hardware capable of providing services. Another way of saying it: a server in a network is a central computer that is accessed by other networked computers which are operated by individual users. A server is maintained by a network technician, but in general it functions on its own without a human operator.
A server is a host, it is used to host a network over a WAN, LAN, and any other connection types. with a network you can transmit files between computers and onto a system stored within the server. It is used to help computers to communicate with minimal collisions on the network route. A server is a computer with more storage space to hold all of the files that are used on each of the computers i.e. each computer that is used will back up the information or transmit it to the server to be stored securely and or backed up at the end of a period of time.
A computer or computer program that manages access to a centralized resource or service in a network.

What are the names of mini computers widely used nowadays?
The Shuttle XPC computers are great examples of modern Mini PCs, aka small form factor PC (SFF). It is very reliable and well designed as far as air flow and ease of access to internal components. You can buy their PC's "Barebones" (no CPU, Hard drive, or memory - just the case, motherboard and power supply are included) or as a complete unit. They look amazing and perform very well. Many other companies make case only solutions in the Micro and Mini ITX form factors. Finally IBM/Lenovo, Dell, HP, and Apple all make SFF computers, but the Shuttles have the greatest flexibility of components making them as cheap or expensive as you want.

How do you downgrade operating system to a 32 bit from a 64 bit?
I'm not 100% sure why you would want to. A 64 bit OS will run 32 bit programs just fine as is.
If you really, really want to drop back down to the 32 bit OS (maybe you've got some archaic 16 bit programs, but I wouldn't expect many of those to work on Windows 8 anyway), you're going to need to reinstall the OS. There's no simple way to "turn off" the "64 bit-ness" of the OS.
