I personally see the difference in the fact that Server DVD, even when pruned down, still provides a functional system to install completely offline. That doesn't mean you want to run it offline for a long term, but at least for experimenting or familiarizing, you can. It's also great for creating kickstarts and similar, because you can re-run it constantly and fine tune it with each iteration, without getting slowed down by the network.
