Adobe Lightroom VS Apple Aperture

Apple Aperture and Adobe Lightroom target the same customer base. Although there are some differences in the applications they are basically the same.

Some would disagree? perhaps... but the little I have seen of Lightroom suggests just that. For me the choice is Apple Aperture but that is because I feel more comfortable in that application, and I also like the easy vault-backup feature.

Some say that Lightroom is best for actual editing and post processing photos. While Aperture have better organizing features but less editing capabilities compared to lightroom.

I think it boils down to a choice of taste, really. If you like Adobe, go for Lightroom. If you like Apple, go for Aperture. A friend of mine with his DSLR camera uses lightroom and is quite happy with it and its features.
