I've been using pspxi for about 4 years now. The last few months my frustration level has really grown with post processing- I'm finding that there are things I just cannot do (or can't figure out how) with it. Very few tutorials around, not good with precise editing (like clone tool and I even have a lot of problems with sharpening). If I ever get a new computer I'll go for cs3 too. If you can afford it I'd say just go for photoshop.
I also use lightroom. Love that one, but wish it had capacity to work with layers. Big problem for me with going back and forth between the two is that the photos never look the same, even set to the same color workspace.
