That's basically the point I'm expressing. While people more experienced with photography may consider attributes other than pixel count when purchasing a DSLR, for the most part, the average consumer will not.
Even here megapixels counts for quite alot. If advising a friend what would one say? Get the most megapixels you can afford. All other things being close to equal, that will make the biggest difference in image resolution. It will basically come down to megapixels per unit of currency. Most people don't shoot in extremely low light so noise is not a big consideration for them, if they are even aware of the concept.
