Canvas 3.0 is not out yet; I called Deneba today to order it, and they
tell me that it will not be shipping until the second quarter of 91
(second quarter == June??).  They have four upgrade paths:

	1) if you purchased Canvas 2.1 recently, (I think > Jan 91)
	   there will be a free upgrade;

	2) if you purchased 2.1 earlier, there will be a $99 upgrade;

	3) if you have an earlier version of Canvas, the upgrade is
	   $129;

	4) and finally, if you own MacDraw II, they will trade you (you
	   send in the program disk) for $149.

  The full retail price is going to be around $399.

I've seen 3.0 working, and I've read the reviews on it--it looks to be a
pretty pwerful program.  Obviously, I am on the list to upgrade.
