The easy Nebs and DSO's are my main targets.
How old a PS version is useable for the normal Astro functions and are there any gotcha's, version plugins etc, I should look out for? I'll probably intitially take a closer look at availability on Ebay.
As a relative beginner, I have zero knowledge of the more sophisticated PS CS2/3/4 version functions.

Yes - PS is the standard in photo processing/editing. There are a number of actions including free ones to complement existing functions. You can't go wrong by getting a licence. I wouldn't get an old version off eBay though. Software licence are non transferable.
