graphic workstation - Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (26 May 2007) :

  graphic workstation
  
     <graphics, computer> A workstation specifically configured
     for graphics works such as image manipulation, bitmap graphics
      ("paint"), and vector graphics ("draw") type
     applications.  Such work requires a powerful CPU and a high
     resolution display.
  
     A graphic workstation is very similar to a CAD workstation
     and, given the typical specifications of personal computers
     currently available in 1999, the distinctions are very blurred
     and are more likely to depend on availability of specific
     software than any detailed hardware requirements.
