To be honest though it does seem like time machine is a goofy, child-inspired system restore.
Agreed, Spotlight is not windows search....more like google desktop.
In terms of actual new functionality, all those add up to less than the amount of new functionality Apple has added to Mac OS X in the same time frame. Yes, SP2 was major, Media Center was major, Tablet PC Edition was major, and I'll allow his assertion that x64 was major. But that's it. All those other editions only differed in which combination of preexisting features they included.
But it has been many years since windows XP first came out. SP2 was free. Tablet, media center, and x64 all were specific to hardware. OSX on the other hand comes out with a new version every 6 months it seems like. Nothing major, just little tiny steps before Windows Major upgrade to vista. Who knows Vista may have had it first, and OSX copied...we will never know except for OSX came out first.
I am all for the open standards that ODF has, but the one thing I dont like is that with any open standard, there are different interpretations of the same file. I will almost guarentee that when someone opens the same file with office 2007 and openoffice, that they will get different "versions" of the same file.
Just something to think about.

It would be awsome if they added online multiplayer to Super Mario 3 Battle. I love that mini game.
At least they are offering a free option for the OS on their servers. Better than nothing, and you get support.
