Public Beta of Adobe Creative Suite 3?
Appleinsider claims that Adobe is considering releasing a public beta of Creative Suite 3.0 as early as this month. This new version of Creative Suite would provide Universal Binary (Intel) support and be available to all current Creative Suite 2.0 license holders.
Creative Suite is Adobe's software bundle containing their professional design software, which includes Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator.
It's been long known that the next version of Creative Suite would be the first version to provide native support for the new Intel-based Macs. While Apple has successfully transitioned the entire Mac line over to Intel processors in 2006, it's thought that many professional users may be awaiting native versions of Adobe Creative Suite before upgrading to the newest Macs.
Adobe demoed Photoshop CS3 at Photoshop World in September.

well this could be good news for those still holding on to their PPC macs.
But even better news to those holding on to their intel macs ;)

But remember that the key word is BETA. I wouldn't use the CS3 software for any critical projects - meaning anything that pays the bills.

public beta means free right? I hope so. *fingers crossed*
Helps to read the article ;)
The beta would be available to all current Creative Suite 2.0 license holders in the form of a Universal Binary that would run natively on both PowerPC and Intel-based Macs, those people say.

This would not only make many Adobe CS users very happy, but it may also provide the incentive for many G5 users to upgrade to a new iMac, MacBook Pro, or MacPro.
Wahoo!
Wahoo!

Lightroom Beta has been free, so I don't see why this shouldn't be too. Only available to registered users of CS2, if true would seem to be the only restriction.
But HEY! this IS only a rumour!
