Hmmm... I should have said "the newer Windows and Mac version" :) Take
MSWlogo for example. It has access to 24-bits color, so theorically, it's got
more than my puny UCB-logo with 16-colors in X :) Kids like color. You give
them LOGO for the Apple ][ and Logo for Mac, which one will they take ?

I almost never use graphical capabilities of LOGO because I use it as a
programming tool, not a multi-media authoring system...
