Adobe will host a press event this March 27 to announce the availability of CS3. This will be the first Universal Binary version of the Creative Suite, and Adobe is calling the event the largest software release in its history. If you've been looking for an excuse to finally buy that Mac Pro, this could be it.
In the meantime, enjoy the "What's in the Box?" promo video above.
Thanks, Nik!
UPDATE: Adobe has said that they won't be shipping CS3 on the 27th, just announcing it. Sorry for the confusion.

I think the Adobe commercial is too long to the extent of being boring and with no "oooh that's why!"s in the end.

the commercial was lame but it stands for a monumental software release for me and many others

Yea, that promo was the lamest thing I've ever seen in my entire life and my life has been pretty lame.
Anyway, the only thing that will make me buy any Mac is the release of Leopard. Otherwise, I'll hold off.

Oh boy, that was a bad commercial. Lots of money spent to communicate nothing.

I enjoyed about 5 seconds of that commercial.

That was the world's longest commercial, and pointless. Although I think every software calls their next release the biggest release (and probably because each one is - but this more so because it merges Macromedia), this better deliver. I have been highly disappointed by the performance of CS - I've been a power user for years, and CS/CS2 have seemed buggy and unstable (less so for photoshop, more for indesign and illustrator). Although they got me off Quark, or should I say Quark just lost me, I've been waiting for them to produce or to see new competition in the market.

I hope everybody here understood that commercial. It was a bit lenthy, but the concept was very clever.
As for it being the biggest software release in history, it probably is. The entire design industry is sort of relying on it.

What I'm hearing, on the Adobe User-to-User forums and from my Apple guy, is that the 27th will be the launch announcement, not the ship date.
Personally, I'm waiting for CS3 + Leopard + new juicy MacPro + 30 inches of onscreen goodness. All at once.

Can anyone say Multi Touch? I'm calling it, Full-Multi Touch support in Leopard and Adobe will be one of the first 3rd party apps to support it. That commercial is saying more than everyone is thinking. Any thoughts?

I think is not that bag. Software adds are always big, and boring. Remember vista's attempt
