Google is funding work to ensure the Windows version of Adobe Systems' Photoshop and other Creative Suite software can run on Linux computers. "We hired CodeWeavers to make Photoshop CS and CS2 work better under Wine," Dan Kegel, of Google's software engineering team and the Wine 1.0 release manager, said on Google's open-source blog. "Photoshop is one of those applications that desktop Linux users are constantly clamoring for, and we're happy to say they work pretty well now... We look forward to further improvements in this area."

I see using Wine to run Photoshop on Linux as a step-gap anyway.
Right now it is possible to do high quality RAW processing and 16bits post-processing in Cinepaint for top quality digital photography - all with OSS. (my blog on that: http://jcornuz.wordpress.com )
With GEGL integration seriously going on in the Gimp as well as some UI work, I want open source software for my photo workflow - and save the cost of a PS license to buy a new DSLR...
Take care,
Joel
