Here's a small article of dSLR vs. point n shoot (PnS): http://www.scrapjazz.com/topics/Photography/Digital_Photography/411.php I own both. Personally, I prefer the dSLR over the PnS. I like using interchangable lenses. But, I also do more post-processing with my dSLR. I think you just need to research both and then decide on which is best for you!

Michelle - What makes a digital SLR different from other digital cameras is the same thing that makes any SLR different from any other camera - film or digital: First, cameras in general are usually identified or categorized by the way the user views the image. An SLR is just one of these categories. There are a few others. Other cameras (Point & Shoots, Rangefinders, etc. all have other less effective ways of looking at the image, such as looking through a peep hole or some optical reproduction, etc. Also, most common SLR's have interchangeable lenses while most Point & Shoot's don't. Some very fine rangefinder cameras DO also, but viewing through a small 'peephole' with lines drawn in to represent different focal lengths can be a mind game trying to decipher exactly what your final image might look like.
