Well, I didn't want to over-stress it, so I purchased Adobe Elements  
4.  I have Photoshop CS2 but I didn't install that on there.   
Elements runs just fine.  For graphic Manipulation I also have  
iPhoto, Aperture and GraphicConverter.  The last 3 are all Universal,  
so they run fast.  I'll wait for Adobe to put out the upgrade to a  
Universal upgrade to CS2 before I put that back on.  Sorry I couldn't  
be more help.  Elements runs FAST!, faster than the old G5.
