Only IF you have the Color Settings set up properly in CS3. If not, you'll see color differences. The difference between your setup and the setup of the OP (and mine, for that matter) is why you don't see a color change and others might.

In Color Settings, you have the option to preserve embedded color, ignore mismatches, or convert to your working space. I prefer to preserve the embedded color and have it warn me of mismatches so that I can control how I want to edit that particular file. If you set it up to convert any mismatch to your working space, the engine will remap the colors prior to opening the photo and you won't see any differences. If you choose to ignore the color mismatches, you're on your own You will have color issues in most instances.
