Adobe vs. Aperture

[droyz2000]

I already have Photoshop CS2 and use it for most of my graphic design work. I was wondering if Apple's program Aperture is worth the investment even though I have Photoshop. Also, I was wondering if Adobe's new Lightroom would be a better way to go then Aperture since it is part of the Adobe line. Thank you for your help.

Aperture is a pretty amazing program and offers so many things that photoshop doesnt. But, it also doesn't have anywhere near the features that photoshop has. Essentially, they are a good compliment to each other.

I haven't had a chance to play with lightroom yet, but I've heard it is extremely similar to aperture in terms of the feature set, so it may be another great option.
