Welcome Erland,About sql 2012, it is fairly new
It's been out for over a year...
and above all had its licensing changed (cores instead of cpu's)
Yes, the changed licensing may be part of the deal. The fact there is not an abundance of new great features may also matter. (Well, there is one: WINDOW FUNCTIONS!)
