Adobe CS compatible with Snow Leopard 10.6?

Question

Adobe CS compatible with Snow Leopard 10.6?

I have an IMac running OS 10.4.11 and would like to finally upgrade to Snow Leopard. Is Adobe CS (the original as in illustrator version 11) compatible with Snow Leopard? I want to make sure my entire creative suite will work before I upgrade. I can't afford to update my adobe suite too.

Imac 5 intel, Mac OS X (10.4.11), Ilife'08

I was using CS2 when I upgraded to Snow Leopoard, and while it worked, it didn’t work great. It was unstable (InDesign crashed repeatedly), and anytime I tried to do anything in Photoshop that changed all the pixels in a large image (i.e. gaussian blur, despeckle, etc.), it took forever. If you don’t plan on upgrading to CS5 anytime soon, you might want to keep a separate partition with Tiger, just to run Adobe CS1/2/whatever.

Thanks. I'm hopeful. What is Rosetta?
