PS8.0 is very similar to PS7.0 I have both as well as PS 5.5. If you are using any PS older than these three you should do the upgrade.
Not only does it do more, it allows you to add and write your own filters and brushes. It is a whole lot easier to navigate as well.
Older versions are very limited in resources and won't let you create original art as easily.

You can look at the features for the various Adobe Products.

Look at the features CS has that you would use -do you need them -if you do not it would not be good value. So with the price you are paying you need to assess your needs or requirements
