Paul,
Since the ultimate output of most photography is a print (arguable), it seems 
to me the comparison should be on paper.

Hi Rob,
I think Cotty agreed that RAW allows for more latitude. What he wanted 
me to test was my assertion (based on Adobe info) that upsizing in the 
RAW converter yields better results than subsequent PhotoShop 
interpolation. I'm not sure if one can see the difference, but I'll 
have a look. I think a 100% monitor viewing of the interpolated images 
is probably just as good as a print for this purpose.
