It's sometimes a matter of what you've become accustomed to. I find
PhotoShop and the ACR interface much more user friendly than
Lightroom. I also need some PhotoShop tools on a regular basis. I do
quite a bit of cloning and compositing with for some clients, and I'd
rather not have to switch from one tool to another. Finally, I really
like Bridge, the PhotoShop adjunct, as an organizational tool. It
conforms to my system, rather than me having to work within its limits.

Hi!
I bought LightRoom when it came out. I never looked back on any photo
editing software ever since. I do have GIMP on my computer (in
portable form from www.portableapps.com) but I don't use it. No need,
really.
I do use GIMP only if I want to download a picture from a photo forum,
edit it some and post it back to let the author know how I would have
done it. For that GIMP is (almost) sufficient. Most recently I learned
that whatever function in GIMP does rotation is very weak in keeping
picture sharpness (unlike LightRoom).
The GIMP that I have says that it is color managed. Well, whatever I
saved from it, indeed looks just like I want it to look, no color
management problems.
In a nutshell - I do recommend LightRoom (or any other complete
photographic workflow system) as it works good, does what I want and
unlike PhotoShop is streamlined and clear in function and interface.

None of the differences above are technical - I mean differences that
can change the outcome of an image after manipulation. Are there any
technical differences between Photoshop and GIMP?
