CS v CS2

Mmmm... no answer after all this time. Could be no-one here has moved from CS to CS2. I moved from V2 to CS2 and liked it straight away. But then I don't know if the features I like were part of CS.
A good feature is the ability to 'stash' palettes over on the side of the screen so the ones you use often are always there without getting in the way of the layout - especially useful if you have a smaller/single monitor. You can even set up different combinations of palettes (which are called workspaces) for different activities e.g. formatting text, formatting graphics etc.
This is Adobe's take on the new features:
Of the ones listed, the best by far is Bridge - sort of like Photoshop's browser function, except you can view a wide range of file types including ID, PDF, AI as well as raster graphics such as PSD, JPG, TIF etc.
I haven't used many of the other features listed, but I like the idea of snippets. I have had limited use of anchored objects and object styles - the former being like inline graphics but with more choices, the latter like paragraph or character styles but applicable to graphics.

I wanted to ask this question a while ago.
I kinda got used to CS1, I like it.
I got Photoshop CS2 from a friend and I hated it, the Bridge (is that what it's called?) takes too long to browse. Then my friend said that it's ok to stick with Photoshop CS that some people just like what they're used to and they work better. Some people still stick with older versions of Photoshop.
I guess it's the same with Indesign.
