I was just reading June LinuxFormat which rates suse 8.2 (installs Codeweavers WINE as standard) and the reviewer "just out of interest" ran adobe photoshop 5.0 from the windows partition and it worked. The quote under the screenshot was "Blimey, we weren't expecting that to work. It's Adobe Photoshop, folks!" Kind of carries a double edged message. I ambled over to http://appdb.codeweavers.com/ which lists some 1600 apps various people have tried. I don't know what to make of the layout on that site, I couldn't decide what to make of problems reported eg back in 2001, but at least it says whether or not someone somewhere managed to get it working.
