    you are buying the laptop with photoshop cs ? is the seller offering the laptop with the license included ? if he does he should give you the original disks and license information.
    if you do not get the original disks and the license it is an illegal copy. and you may not use it. it´s the same like a stolen version.

    about transferring the license i´m not sure, how adobe is acting in such a case. before you are buying you should go to adobe and read a little bit in their forum about the legal aspects of transferring a license.

    If you want to use CS2 on a new laptop, buy it. It will be safer and legal.
