What other bells and whistles you get with SBS? The user doesn't want to invest in additional money for a backup solution so I'll be using windows server backup. Are they the same versions?

The main difference I see between the two OS's is SBS includes Exchange. The down side is SBS requires much more resources as seen from my lab.
