I upgraded from CDS to CS2 about a month ago. Here are some of the problems that I have encountered.
Text tool: a measure such as 12 pt produces a huge font. To get conventional text sizes, one has to go to 0.5 pt and the like.
Layer palette: Often after creating a new layer, the layers palette is void until resized.
One has to use Cntl C and V to copy and paste. Shift Insert, Cntl Insert no longer work.
Smart Sharpen is all very fine, but a setting of say 30% is vastly "stronger" than was 30% in unsharp mask. It doesn’t seem to cope with subtle sharpening at all well.
The text-follows-a-path facility works only occasionally. Evidently there is a trick to it, but not one documented.
The program when minimised in the Windows task bar will not return to size unless right clicked > restore.
Menus – thin, hard to read font.
