System Center 2012 SP1 vs 2012 R2

[kalessi]

Can you still buy system center 2012 Sp1? Is the 2012 R2 just an upgrade to it? Are the system requirements the same? I was just curious because I couldn't find any info on sp1??

As for R2 vs SP1...usually the "R2" means it's an upgraded version, sort of like Server 2008 vs 2008 R2 or 2012 vs 2012 R2.
