Subject: [Leica] OT: Lightroom, Aperture, or CS3

Has anyone done a comparison of these three?

I'm a Mac user and have used CS2 before on a PC, but need to choose
something to buy for my new Macbook.  CS3 is the obvious choice given my
past use of CS2, but it's too expensive, and I only use the photographer's
tools in it, not the graphic designer parts.  So Lightroom and Aperture are
the obvious replacements, but will they do all I need and which will be
easier to learn for a CS2 user?

I've downloaded the Aperture 30-day trial and so far don't find it very
intuitive.  I guess I'm too used to CS2...
