The commands eset <- rma(Data) and eset <- expresso(Data, bgcorrect.method="rma", normalize.method="quantiles", pmcorrect.method="pmonly",summary.method="medianpolish") should (in theory) be giving the same expression values. While the example you mention does appear in the main affy vignette I am not sure that it is ever presented as being the way to compute RMA expression values using the expresso function.
