No more box after CS6.

From Adobe:

Adobe also announced that the company will focus creative software
development efforts on its Creative Cloud offering moving forward. While
Adobe Creative Suite® 6 products will continue to be supported and
available for purchase, the company has no plans for future releases of
Creative Suite or other CS products. Focusing development on Creative Cloud
will not only accelerate the rate at which Adobe can innovate but also
broaden the type of innovation the company can offer the creative community.

Adobe is facilitating the transition to Creative Cloud with attractive
pricing plans and promotions for individual members, teams and enterprise
customers. Adobe will continue to sell licenses for all CS6 products via
electronic download from adobe.com and participating resellers.

Adobe Creative Cloud is a membership-based service that provides users with
access to download and install Adobe creative desktop applications; game
developer tools and integration with the Adobe Touch Apps. With Creative
Cloud membership, users also have access to: a vibrant global creative
community; publishing services to deliver apps and websites; cloud storage
and the ability to sync to virtually any device; and new products and
exclusive updates as they're developed.

In other words - no box.
