Generally, it is very hard to envision the difference between sensor measurements only by reading through a spec sheet. The graphic below will help give you a more clear sense of the sensor dimensions in the E-400 and E-600.

As you can see, both of the cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements but not the same megapixels. You should anticipate the Olympus E-600 to resolve more detail using its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also make it easier to crop pics somewhat more aggressively. The older E-400 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor tech.
