filmscanners: Digital ICE. To use or not?

["Wilson, Paul" <PWilson@gomez.com>]

I owned the Nikon LS8000 for a little while and now I have the Minolta Scan
Multi Pro.  I've read various things about how ICE can soften an image and
http://www.luminous-landscape.com/ice.htm even has an article about how to
lessen the problem.  

With both scanners, I wasn't able to detect any softening due to Digital
ICE.  Is there something I'm missing?  Is there a particular situation where
this would be more apparent?

Thanks.
