i can tell you what i like in Drupal that TYPO3 hasn't:

- a native and full supported Taxonomy (ie: tags/category) system
- multilanguage: you can have a page NOT in the default language first  
(since it works with "nodes" to which you attach other things
- a native and full supported content model types (without using  
kickstarted + extension, you can modify / add content models on the fly)
- more advanced "front end user" registration and functions
- all these lot of german speaking/writers people ;)


all things anyway that are on the way to be developend in next TYPO3  
versions (and 5)

what still make me stay in TYPO3 (and comapred to Drupal precisely):

- separated Backend with huge possibilities (i hate Drupal all frontend..  
Drupal 7 is a bit better)
- easiness to modify _everything_ (with hooks, exts, typoscript.. you just  
have to know where to put your hands) and don't worry about that next core  
update
- different ways (usually at least 2 professional ones) to do things
- to know that things are starting to go in a better direction for the  
future.. as Dmitry says: don't bury TYPO3 yet :)


ps: today if something can't be done easily/nicely with TYPO3, i search  
how to integrate it with external apps.. like you want to give your  
editors the best UI possibile? create a Wordpress backend for editors  
work, then import the articles into TYPO3!
want a good ecommerce? use Magento/CS-Cart/waht ever you want, and easily  
integrate it with TYPO3


hugs!
