Has anyone read this article - the translation is so bad that it's difficult to make much sense of it:
la nitidez perfecta (http://74.125.93.104/translate_c?hl=es&sl=es&tl=en&u=http://www.hugorodriguez.com/articulos/nitidez_perfecta_01.htm&usg=ALkJrhhQMapxANXLkMELodHfZlTok6vtuQ)
He is comparing sharpening plugins for Photoshop as well as the sharpening of Lightroom 2.0, Aperture and Lightzone. His assessment of the results is interesting. I found understanding his techniques for testing difficult because of the poor translation but the impression I got that the testing is not science based as he was not testing like for like. See what you think.

Lost in translation...
Seems to be extensive but perhaps flawed in that it's not at all clear that each tested component was actually "optimized" for their respective capabilities...but of course, trying to read the faulty translation made that completely unclear.
The other overriding fault is that the results shown are incomplete if the final result is intended to be a print...what an output intended for print would look like is, of course, difficult to show on the web. In the case of Lightroom, (and PhotoKit Sharpener) that is a pretty large part of their roles...so, unless you are a native Spanish speaker, I really don't think one can gleam much from this.
