WATS (Wide Area Telephone Service) (pronounced "watts"): A discounted long-distance calling plan that allows calls in or out. The popular 800 numbers are WATS lines in. The calls are charged to the holder of the 800 number at a discounted rate.

Workstation: Traditionally a workstation has been a dumb terminal connected to a host.

A workstation, then, is simply an input/display device through which a user accesses a resource.
