I really don't see why this is a big deal to ANYBODY.
The entire Adobe suite RUNS on Intel -- just a bit more slowly than it did on the G4/G5? Is that a problem? Then hold on to your G4/G5 for a little while.
The kinds of people who run Adobe products are professionals using said products to EARN A LIVING. They already have G5s loaded with tons of RAM (which Rosetta seems to need even more than the OS), so their experience on a G5 is going to be great, and on an Intel it might fall to "quite good."
Given that tower Macs will be the LAST to receive the Intel update, I really don't see what the fuss is about.
Far more important is now knowing roughly WHEN CS3 IS COMING OUT. This allows people to make plans, something they couldn't do when the release was totally unknown.
The Adobe problem is a minor inconvenience, not a major debacle. For major debacles, anybody here remember how many YEARS it took Quark to get its act together for OS X??
