Digital projection is quite a bit brighter and more reliable and
traditional transparency projection. Set up is also typically easier
and more adaptable to a variety of room settings. Keep in mind that
projection is typically a low-res mode of viewing (unless you are
seated ortho or closer, which rarely happens unless you are in IMax
territory and they are shooting 70 mm) and not very revealing of image
quality. You will see much more examining a chrome on a light box with
a well corrected loop than you will under the vast majority of
projection situations.

At this stage, I reckon digital projectors are absolutely
fine for their primary purpose - business presentations.
They don't hold a candle to a projected 35mm slide, never
mind a 6x6 one.

  In my experience business slide shows are usually so badly
done that the method really doesn't matter.
  The sharpest projected images I've ever seen were from an
old fashioned lantern slide projector using 3-1/4 by 4-1/4
plates (or whatever the size for the old B&L prjectors was).
6x6 comes pretty close. There is to my eye the same
difference with slides that one gets on prints: going from
35mm to any larger size negative is quite noticable.
