Nope, 2.0 is a dog. Try this experiment at home (I used an SE):
     With version 1.2.#:
	 Create a new stack with an empty background.
	 Put on 32 bg fields.
	 Click in a few fields.

    With version 2.0
	 Convert the new stack to 2.0
	 Click in a few fields.

Notice the time lag (in SECONDS!) between the time you click and the time
the cursor appears in the fields for 2.0.

Frankly, I'm not sure if the benefits of 2.0 are worth the cost.

Cheers,
    -Ken K
