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.

I took some night shots last night -- walked to the nearest church and snapped some corridor / lighting shots @ ISO 80.
Results were much improved (in terms of being natural), but like you said -- i either need metal gear solid SNIPER DRUGS (to stop hand shake) or a TRIPOD for the next step up.
Gonna work on my hands though and use the 2 second drive mode at night.... lol
might post a few of those pics later for constructive crit'
we're talking cameras
thx again
