midrange computerA medium-sized computer system or server. Midrange computers encompass a very broad range and reside in capacity between high-end PCs and mainframes. They cost from $25,000 to more than a million. IBM's AS/400s (iSeries) and HP's 3000 and Alpha families are examples. Formerly called "minicomputers," which were hosts to dumb terminals connected over dedicated cables, most midrange computers today function as servers in a network. See mainframe and minicomputer.
