There are several versions, all expensive, some of which may still be
available through the usual channels.  Digital Research's `DR Logo' and
LCSI's Logo for the IBM PC are excellent commercial versions, though
both are a bit dated now. 

Nimbus Logo for the RM Nimbus is an MS-DOS version with sprites and
parallel processing, but it runs only on the RM Nimbus machine and not
on the IBM-PC or clones.  Marketed by Research Machines, Oxford,
England.  (I declare an interest: I wrote this one.)

Have a look at LCSI's new Logo Writer: it is very different from the
older Logo's and has a number of fascinating innovations. 

The address I have for LCSI is:
   3300 chemin C^ote Vertu
   bureau 201
   MONTR'EAL, Qu'ebec, Canada  H4R 2B7
