What photo application do you use?

I use Apples Aperture and iPhoto, Photoshop CS2
I used lightroom when I was on a PC and absolutly despised it so glad I got aperture

Aperture for now. I'm finding the speed issue to be getting to me, and given I'll never get a mac pro, and quite possibly would switch back to PC, I'm contemplating switching over to Lightroom.

What was it that turned you off to Lightroom? I don't really like the modular idea, but the developing tools I find to be far better than Aperture.

My primary goal is a DAM tool that is strong in editing, and I didn't like iview, heh.

#1 is Irfanview 4.10
#2 is Corel Photo Album 6
#3 is Adobe Lightroom (Pixmatec RawShooter Pro)
#4 is Paintshop Pro XI
#5 is Corel Media One 2.0
#6 is Microsoft Officer 2007 Picture Manager

All installed, and each has something I like. I have Photoshop CS on another machine - but almost never use it. Too fiddly.

Adobe Lightroom for the moment. I don't sell photos, and thus I've decided that it doesn't make monetary sense to buy CS3 (even student pricing). Lightroom is definitely worth it for anybody that takes and retouches a lot of photos.
