The storage options are one big one allowing you to format a Zip Disc into a bunch more hybrid partitions for saving samples and sequences. More selections for Quantizing timing options, SCSI disk copy so you can copy the contents of a zip to back it up to another ZIP plus al kinds of other stuff. For me it is a no brainer and well worth the cash, i dont think i would be as interested working on a stock OS3.11 MPC3k near as much daily it really is a big step up for the 3K! I dont thinnk i have heard of anyone wishing they had not gotten the 3.5 OS! 
no doubt... In Vailixi, if you use the export zone to new sound function, does the OS keep the zone in the same position after you export a new snd? With the Akai OS, once you copy zone to temp and then copy the temp to a new sound it resets your zone back to 0 when you go back to the original sound. Im guessing since you never leave the original sound's screen, it wont reset your zone back to 0...
