Re: I am thinking of getting rid of Lightroom

Another option (although it will be dissed before most consider it) is to use the Organizer in Photoshop Elements (PSE). It has a fairly robust multiple cataloging function with backup, keywording, searching, metadata, collections, etc., and has many PS similarities. While in the Organizer just highlight an image and hit Ctrl/H and the image is sent to PS or to ACR is it's a RAW file. Of course it has it's own Editor with about 80% of the capabilities of PS and has built-in bookmaking and other projects, like calendars, etc. It's a lot cheaper than LR so you might want to check out the demo. PSE with CS5 works pretty well for me.
