Why wouldn't we use Canvas 2.0? Simple: In the summer of '87 when we set
up our Mac lab, we bought 15 licences of SuperPaint. It's a *lot* cheaper
to upgrade those licences each year to the latest version of SuperPaint
than to buy new licences of Canvas. And besides, I'm sure the students
will get along fine with SuperPaint 2.0 (which also sounds pretty good
as far as features are concerned.

And why wouldn't I use Canvas 2.0? Same reason: I bought SuperPaint way
back and it's cheaper to stick with it...
