"Servers" view missing from Eclipse Indigo

I'm trying to configure Tomcat with Eclipse Indigo, but the "Servers" view is missing. That being said, I had to follow this tutorial on how to configure Tomcat with Eclipse Indigo using plugins. The plugins work, but I would like to find out why the "Servers" view is missing in the first place.

Eclipse specs:

Version: 3.7.1.r37x_v20110729-9gF7UHOxFtniV7mI3T556iZN9AU8bEZ1lHMcVK Build id: M20110909-1335 

Tomcat specs:

Server version: Apache Tomcat/7.0.22 Server built: Sep 27 2011 09:40:50 Server number: 7.0.22.0 OS Name: Windows XP OS Version: 5.1 Architecture: x86 JVM Version: 1.6.0_20-b02 

OS specs:

Microsoft Windows XP Professional Version 2002 Service Pack 3 

And if it matters, this is the tutorial I was originally following.

Why my Eclipse is not showing server option?

This is because you haven't installed Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers.

Where is the Servers tab in Eclipse?

In the Java EE perspective of Eclipse, you will find the Servers tab at the bottom.

Is it missing just from the menu maybe?

If you goto "Window > Show View > Other..." and then type Servers in the filter, does it show up?

Also make sure you downloaded the "Eclipse For Java EE Developers" package as I do not believe the "Eclipse for Java Developers" contains the Servers view.
