CS4 because I own it.
I did try CC for a while, mostly trying to improve compatibility with newer operating systems.
But
1. I disliked the idea of subscription software, and –
2. I hated that it so often flaked out on me and required authentication more often than they claimed.
(way more than once a month -- more like twice a week).
That made me paranoid about the reliability of my internet connection.
So, after using all the apps for a bit and realizing that I wasn't benefiting from any new features, I gave it up and reinstalled the old CS4.
Edit: I've tried Acorn briefly a couple times. When I find CS4 no longer works for me (because of OS update or other) I'll likely look to Acorn first.
