Absolutely.  Lightroom 2.0 is a totally different program.  I am 
working right now to use LR to replace iView as my database.  It's 
very fast and has amazing search abilities.  Since iView was bought 
by Microsoft and changed to MS Expressions, it has just become more 
and more buggy.  I'm glad LR come out when it did.  I'm on page 170 
of Martin Evenings new 600 page book on LR 2.0 and am learning all 
kinds of things it can do.  Just like PSCS3, you can use it 
immediately when you install it, but you could also study it for 
years and continue to learn everything it can do.
