Very impressive and definitely shows that it is worth having a decent scanner.
It also demonstrates that it is worth being very selective about what you scan, unless you have a lot of time on your hands

To say I am amazed at the difference wouldn't cover it. I don't remember it looking that good through the projector
Wonder if I can borrow a scanner from somewhere As Hyram says I'd have to be very selective in what gets scanned. Or I could go back and re-take the shot, think the mountain will still be there.

I'll add more as I go:
tyronet2000's scan
My scan: 7200dpi, 8 passes.

I think it shows there is a difference. But bear in mind that I have a very fast PC and this scan took over 30 minutes.
Edit:
Just for info, the original TIFF for this slide was 10.008 x 6,609 pixels, so effectively a full-frame 66MP picture!
