Subject: [Leica] Lightroom or CS4 Bridge?

spoken like someone who's not yet opened a digital photo in a current  
version of lightroom;
and does not realize that 85% - 90% of the digital photograph  
processing tools in PS
are duplicated in LR.

And for the other 15% of those tools
and all the painting tools
and masking tools
and typographic tools
and layering tools
etc.

The image will open seamlessly from LR to PS and back again.
And that's a very good thing;
because LR will do things that PS will not;
like export html or flash slide shows, etc.
Also, LR's printing capabilities are far more powerful than PS's.

Two different programs;
each powerful in its own way
and with considerable overlap of features.

As a photographer, using digital cameras,
I want both running on my computer.

Actual daily use: 95% LR, 5% PS.
And that 5% is a very important 5%.
