Sure :-)
When it comes to the actual blogging, it is basically the same software.
What MU offers is more architectural - it is specifically designed for
hosting operations who want to run lots of blogs on the same instance:
1. It streamlines the process for adding new blogs to an install. No
server-side access is required, since new blogs are added to the same
database (as a new set of tables).
2. Consequently, it is possible to allow end-users to create their own
blog as a subdomain, e.g., myblog.example.com, or subdirectory
example.com/myblog, with pre-defined settings, using a simple sign-up
form. This makes it possible to scale to thousands of blogs, with almost
no effort to the server administrator beyond initially configuring
wordpress MU.
3. It allows for better separation between different blogs being hosted
on the same server - you can choose which themes are available to each
blog, have default sets of themes users can choose between, etc.
There's more no doubt, but I only just started playing with Wordpress MU
and my first thought was "this looks great, there should be a .deb" :-)
Thanks
Matthew
