I'm looking to create large prints (40x60 or even larger) for sale. I've downloaded a trial version of Perfect Resize from OnOne Software (aka Genuine Fractals). I've tried outputting a 40x60 tiff image and comparing it to a 40x60 exported tiff from Lightroom. As far as I can tell the Perfect Resize image appears sharper, although with some loss of smoothness in areas of continuous colour like blue sky. But I'll be danged if I can tell which one is 'better' just by pixel peeping at 100%.

Does anyone have any practical experience of very large prints made with Lightroom compared to similar prints with Perfect Resize/Genuine Fractals? I'm really after the best quality I can get with the finished print. I know the only real way to tell is by paying to have test prints done by each method but I thought I'd check to see if fellow TPers have hands-on knowledge before getting out my chequebook :-)
