I had a laptop with Photoshop CS2 that broke on me last year. I dont know if it was the Photoshop because I had tons of other applications on that computer.
I just got a new laptop. Is it smart to download Photoshop CS2 again? I hope it doesn't ruin this one.
 
Photoshop wouldnt have been the only cause. Normally spyware and virus's are the main culprate.

Photoshop takes up a lot of RAM but only while its being used and/or editing large files. This would make your computer go very slowly if you didnt have enough ram as the computer is writing stuff to the harddrive to free up ram. Close photoshop and it should speed up again.

Photoshop should be fine unless its an older computer.
 
Photoshop can be very resource intensive but if you have a new computer then it should be fine. just check on the Adobe website for the minimum and recommended requirement just to make sure.
