To sum up, each of the cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements albeit different megapixels. You should count on the Sony S2100 to produce more detail using its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also let you crop shots somewhat more aggressively. The younger S2100 should have a benefit in sensor technology.
