The Flash makers encourage photography fans to download the beta, try it out, and consider providing their valuable feedback to the team for future adjustments.

Commenting on the new release, Winston Hendrickson, vice president products, Creative Media Solutions, Adobe, said, “Photoshop CS6 will be a milestone release that pushes the boundaries of imaging innovation with incredible speed and performance.”

“We couldn’t wait to share this beta of Photoshop CS6 with our customers and are looking forward to hearing from them and seeing the ways they are incorporating the beta into their daily creative workflows,” added Hendrickson.

I think it's a shame that Vista 64-bit is not going to be supported.
