What precisely can you do in BESR8 that you can't in BESRO for BE12?

I've used BE for years (since v8) so I am familiar with it up to v11, but it's hard to find a list *anywhere* of exactly what you CAN do in BE System Recovery 8 that you CAN'T do with the BE System Recovery Option in BE 12.  Can anyone help?
 
And please don't just point me to the usual "BESR in the gold standard..." pages on www.symantec.com.  I've been through all that.  I'm looking for a proper comparison that will help me decide which product to buy for our organisation.
 
Thanks.

Thanks Chris.  I found that subsequently, but there is a line in it that indicates it is not the full answer I am seeking:
"The features listed above, among others, are only available in the full version of BESR."
 
Do you know of anything that does include the other features?

This technote contains the most accurate and complete information about the differences between Backup Exec System Recovery and the Backup Exec System Recovery Option for Backup Exec for Windows Servers.

At this time these two System Recovery products are the only ones available in the Symantec Backup Exec line.
