I like that they are comparing the scanner output and not the optical print 
as I would sacrifice a little resolution for the
ability to manipulate the picture in Photoshop.  I even like the comparison of 
the affordable scanner output to digital as that is
what I can buy.  What I don't like is cropping 35mm film to APS size and then 
comparing to 6MP digital.   That way you can compare
large format to 6MP digital and digital would win and only because of lack of 
noise, that is just stupid.
