What's the difference between Web Server and Application Server?

804267Jan 29 2011 — edited Jan 30 2011
I've searched the web and generally what I get is Web server only deals with HTTP, but app server deals with business logic. But in http://www.sap-img.com/java/difference-between-web-and-application-server.htm I got the sense that apps server nowadays already have "built-in" web server. So, does this mean that web server is not needed anymore? thanks
