Sorry if this was covered before, but I currently have PS7 installed on a Windows XP computer.
If I wish to upgrade to PS-CS, does it search for the PS7 install, overwrite it or do I have to type in the registration information (name and serial number) when installing PS-CS?
Also for the $169 upgrade, is that available in stores or only from Adobe? Thanks

The PS7 install is left untouched and CS is installed in its own directory. You must enter the CS serial number and go throught the registration and activation (Win only) process.

I don’t know if the CS install will work with the PS7 CD in your CR-ROM. I doubt it.

You are free to uninstall PS7.

In stores, but in Canada they are still being rationed. You may have to go on a waiting list. My order took 5 days.

I live in Canada. I ordered directly from Adobe and it was on my doorstep in 3 days. Faster than any Canadian company does it.
