That's a more complete list than the one I saw but still, "A
calculator
widget"? Wow!
Quicktime7?  They give that away free anyway
An improved "About this Mac"?

A lot of things seem to get a mention just to bump up the feature count.
Spotlight *does* sound nice, though how useful in practise is another
matter.

As you say, decide for yourself, but a quarter of the cost of the macmini
for these "features" seems a bit much.
I guess if you have a handful of macs then the family pack may make it
worthwhile, but otherwise?  Hmmm....

Cheers,

T.
