Here is my dilemma... I do not own LR or PS.  I am going to purchase one or
the other.  Not both.

So I am trying to determine which best fits my needs....

Needs:
Need to import files from some gadget ( Scanner and Camera Card)
Put them somewhere (drive and directory)  I want them to be.. not where some
company wants to put them...... 
Allow me to do pretty minor edits.. including Crop, contrast, Brightness,
maybe color correction, and especially scratch and dust removal
Edits are done on a select image.  Not all images.
B+W conversion of Color files
Not crash.

Not Need
Batch processing of anything
Sophisticated image naming and retrieval SW
Anything to do with Movies type needs
Slideshow make up
Printing sophistication ( I only have a B+W Laser printer... and do not
intend on getting anything else.)

Seems simple... so why can't I figure it out?
