I am seeing a lot of difference, although the overall effect is subtle 
if that makes sense.  I see more detail all over, especially in the 
dress and her face.  The subtle gradation of tones is smoother across 
her arm.  Overall it looks sharper.  I think it is quite an improvement 
and a very nice image.

For what its worth I am viewing this on the latest generation iMac LCD 
screen.
