I would fly (with a trial download) Aperture 3 and any other program before you buy, though, even LR3 at $300. (although $79 for A3 is an awesome price and worth buying if you have the money) I do still advocate trying GIMP or Picasa for starters. They are free and may do everything you need for now.
