Normally, it is very tough to picture the gap in sensor dimensions purely by going through specifications. The image here might offer you a much better sense of the sensor measurements in the L20 and P7700.

To sum up, each of the cameras have different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The L20 with its smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallower depth of field harder and the Nikon P7700 will produce more detail using its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop images a bit more aggressively. The more aged L20 will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor tech.
