Can someone comment on LyX vs TeXstudio? I'm using TeXstudio, I'm loving it but I'm wondering if I'm missing out on great stuff.

Different levels of abstraction. TeXstudio is akin to an IDE for LaTeX, whereas LyX is more a nice frontend on top of LaTeX. IMO, if you're already experienced and happy with LaTeX there's no reason to switch, but if you don't already know LaTeX or you find the workflow clunky LyX may be a good fit.
