One word - Productivity - I have tried them all and there is not another application that handles nearly every aspect of the photographers workflow. A must have app in any serious photographers toolbelt.

i like lightroom a lot. i have many presets that i installed with ease. i just wish there was a border (frame) plug-in for photos so i wouldn't always have to run to photoshop for that.

I find the Lightroom UI to be messy and showy rather than out of your way and functional...I much prefer Aperture, though Aperture needs to adopt core image filter support, then I'll hardly even need Photoshop except for fancy art-filters...

It should be noted that G5 builds are no longer being maintained by beatnikpad. Not sure if this should be split out for G4 / G5 / Intel builds or not.

G4 and G5 are no longer being maintained as mentioned. There is a separate page for the intel builds over here --> Bonecho.

There is also a seperate set of builds (all based on Bonecho) maintained by a different person for G4 and G5 and intel, and it is called Furbism, so if you still want an updated G4 or G5 build, go to that app page.
