Yes, I'm shooting DNG for that very reason. In fact, I'll probably continue to shoot it because my main photography computer is equipped with PSCS. I have CS2 on my work laptop, so I sometimes work in the new RAW converter, but I don't want to be limited to that machine. My desktop workstation is better in every other way.
