UnknownVT has an interesting point, but let's look at it a different way.
Hands up (figuratively) all those who think looking at your K10 or K100 shots full screen on your 22 inch 1680 x 1050 high res monitor is adequate?
Keep in mind that this is only 87 dpi !
I have seen 4 foot by 6 foot prints from 2 & 3 MP! Agreed you don't normally put your nose to the paper, but I always found that uncomfortable any way (my eyes don't focus that close).
The real issue as you print bigger and bigger is to resize and use interpolation to avoid making the pixle too large, this gives smooth images with enough sharpness to print big from small origonal files

This is a crop of approximately 25% of a 6 MP image, resized to 200% and printed on 11 x 17,
It was shot with a 28-105 FA lens, on an *istD using maximum resolution J-PEG
The only reason I got close enough was it was much more interested in the remains of the mouse under its talon. Clearly you don't go looking for a shot like this with a 100mm lens!
