Yep...I have not used Lightroom, but I do use Aperture and love it.  For 
me it is one of, maybe the single, best tools to come along for digital 
photography.  I can catalog my work, edit the images, out put for most 
any need...heck I can even design a book and order it from the program.  
The more I use it the more I like it.

I seldom have to go to photoshop for most of my images...comes from all 
those years shooting chromes, you either get it right or you don't. :)  
I am not real big on image manipulation...I do some and like some of the 
new features in CS3 like the B&W conversions.
