I have a 20" iMac Intel Core Duo with 2GB of memory and 256mb vram.
I was coming from a AMD Athlon64 3200+ with 1 GB of memory, using photoshop cs2 was a question I had myself, once I got my imac in ( got it in January about 2 weeks after it was released from macworld). The performance on photoshop running in rosetta was faster then my windows computer. To be honest, it's well worth the upgrade as photoshop runs faster even tho it's not even supported and has to run in rosetta its still faster then my amd 3200+. I can't wait to see the UB version which will be cs3.

Mac's won't get cheaper. They will upgrade the processor and sell out the old units with maybe a $100 discount if that. powerbooks and macbook pros sold for the same price when macbook pros hit the market, same with imac g5, it was the same price. Honestly amazon gave $250 rebate on imac intel core duo as to the G5 imac was a $150 rebate, the older unit cost more then the new unit. Your not going to see a price difference at all, I guarantee it.
Let's not forget you can load windows on intel macs, so your never going to have a loss.
Here are some screen shots of me playing css and dods on my imac 20"
