All of the adjustments are non-destructive so I just save the DNG files in my archives after editing. When I need a photo for a particular use, I export the right file size and type to PSCS3 and use my PhotoKit plug-ins for sharpening. There is no reason for saving sharpened tiffs or jpegs when you may not know future use. The Lightroom 2.0 version which has only been out a few weeks is totally different from 1.4 and from the beta version of 2.0. It's almost like a totally different program.
