Macbooks + Adobe CS2 = no good?

I heard a vicious rumor recently that the new intel powered Macbooks, regardless of OSX platform will not run Adobe CS2 programs? Is there any truth to this? If there is, what is the next best recommendation?

I am a Advertising Photography major and I'm in need of an upgrade. We use primarily G5's around campus for such activities but I'm not really interested at this point in having another Desktop, or a slow G4 iBook that is going to be obsolete ...if it isn't already. Laptop PC's are out of date before they even reach you hands... so any ideas? or am I safe with a MacBook?

Let me know!

The problem is that CS2 is not a Universal program (i.e. Will run on PowerPC and Intel chips), thereby you need to run CS2 in Rosetta. Therefore, there will be a big performance hit until the Universal CS2 is released, which, according to Adobe, wont be until 07.
 
So thusfar we have a big fat "NO" on the Macbook + CS2. Unless of course it is run through an emulator... what are the other options for exploration at this point then?
