Lightroom vs. Elements vs. PS3?

Im used to CS/PS myself but, Im learning to use Capture NX for my RAWs. It depends on if you are processing RAW or, Jpegs.
 
Lightroom and CS3 are very different programs. Even Bridge and Lightroom, which makes for a better comparison, are different. here's an overview:

I prefer Bridge/CS3 most of the time... But, I'm probably in the minority. LR just hasn't grown on me enough to completely revamp my workflow.

Edited to add: Elements is a strange one to throw into the mix, if you have CS3. CS3 makes it obsolete... a diluted version of Photoshop. That said, Elements is more than adequate for most shooters.
