Yes, that's true about coarse screens...and as was commented earlier, 
a very grainy negative can appear sharper than a grainless negative or 
digital camera file.

However, what I see is less fine, sharp detail (eg small grafitti and 
labels on trash in a particular image)with QTR...actually I think 
the "detail" is almost there, but it needs CS smart sharpen to make it 
form up, whereas BO doesn't need that extra sharpening.
