One is for server or workstation, the other for Personal Computing. They use different chipsets and gear for different purposes.
Business server is mainly for data base management and multi-users environment while PC users focus on multi-media functions.
Another way to look at the difference is all servers use ECC memory and components can be hot swapped. It does not mean you must use Xeon server for a small busines until you experienced loss of vital transactions and customers.
