Oh well, Just as well, I bought Aperture just a couple of days ago,
Can't afford that price for Lightroom at the moment.

You'll do fine with Aperture.

I'm one of the few who prefer Aperture to Lightroom. Maybe Lightroom 4 can sway me away? I'll look for a trial and uh, give it a try.

I just took delivery of the Lightroom 4 upgrade at work today. Installed it immediately and I'm over the moon. The interface is very similar to version 3 - only fairly subtle tweaks. But man, under the hood feels like a different story. The degree of control and ability to handle delicate nuance is an order of magnitude greater. Just a fantastic tool for discovering your very own sweet spot in the push and pull that is the utter plasticity of digital photography.

Can't speak to Aperture - I would love to try it, though. But that said, I am very happy with the workflow I've now established.
