Thank you Jim! I have been reading your posts here, for a long time and I appreciate your thoughts.

My heading should have been Lightroom plus CS5, not VS CS5,
I could not do without CS5, since CS3 won't work with obvious computer upgrades, and photoshop is the bomb. Lightroom is the question- it IS a cool program, but Bridge is a cool program too, really. I would like to hear from more users PLEASE !!!
