    Ummm...there's a metric shit-ton of new features in SP2, and very few in 10.3.5.

    Don't get me wrong, I'm about to run Software Update right now, but let's be fair.

    To be fair, Apple has already released 3 OS X 10.3 updates this year.

    Microsoft, on the other hand, released Windows XP SP1 on September 9, 2002, and SP1a on February 3, 2003.

    So in a year and a half since the last update, I'd expect there to be a whole lot more features than between updates only 2 months apart.

    If you're going to be fair, be fair. Windows XP is to PC's as OS X 10.1 is to Macs. Both were initially released in 2001. OS X has seen a "metric shit-ton of new features" since 10.1.
