A while ago I began testing adobe lighthouse and I was impressed. Then I
came to realize that it was soo slow that Picasa was a thousand times
better, even without all the RAW development features (I use photoshop for
that).

I was looking at the apple aperture website, and I liked it. What do you
think of it? How fast to browse pictures compared to lighthouse and picasa?
And the ultimate question... do you know if they plan to release a windows
version?

Apple is unlikely to release a Windows version. On the other hand, you
can get a Mac that runs Windows, if you want.

Aperture is not faster than Lightroom. It is faster than iView.
Nevertheless, I use iView because it is a lot more flexible and allows
me to store files on external drives. This is important to me, because
I use a G4 PowerBook which has only a 100Gb hard drive. I could easily
fill all the available space on this drive in a very short time.

There is a Windows version of iView. You might give it a try. Maybe it
runs faster in Windows.

Lightroom still appears to have many features that have not been
implemented yet. This program might be more interesting when it is
released.
