Yeah, if anything, we were ripping your technique, not your camera

Just kidding though, that's what learning is all about. P&S cameras are capable of a lot, you just have to put more thought and care into it to achieve certain results. Night shots are a good example of that - they'll be inherently noisier than most DSLRs, so you have to compensate other ways.

Even with a DSLR though, that shot would at the very least benefit from a tripod. Lower ISO will improve noise/grain, but increase the need for a tripod.

Actually, that sort of shot might benefit from HDR technique... which would be a lot more difficult, though not impossible, with more P&S cameras, especially if they don't have exposure bracketing.
