But this news might get some eager Mac fans to slam on the brakes: Adobe Creative Suite 3, including Photoshop, may have some compatibility issues with the new OS."</em></p><p><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/at/auto/1251308298.usr105634.jpg" style="border: 1px solid #d2d2bb;" /></p><p>According to <a href="http://blogs.adobe.com/jnack/2009/08/adobe_snow_leopard_faq.html" target="_blank">John Nack</a>, the principal product manager of Adobe Photoshop, CS3 hasn't been tested but it doesn't mean they aren't planning on doing it eventually. Obviously they want users to upgrade, and this is one way to force the hand so to speak, as well as a way to anger your customer base. It was available in 2007 for $1,700.00 USD so if I was one of the purchasers, I think I'd be a bit peeved they weren't making sure it was compatible. It could all be a moot point and CS3 will work fine on Snow Leopard, we just wont know until after Friday this week when Snow Leopard is released.&nbsp;</p>

Appears to be a moot point:

CS3 and Snow Leopard are purring just fine on my Macs. That said, I'm expecting a couple of minor issues to surface once I start stress testing both.
