What the facts are is that there is *one* hypercard. The difference in the versions is that on some of the lower end products, the ability to get out of browsing mode will be hidden. Not gone, hidden -- to protect someone who hasn't figured things out yet won't get themselves in deep trouble. Some of the authoring stacks -- the Ideas stuff -- won't be included as well (but are generally available if you decide you want them). Yet another mindless flame. I guess if people can't find legitimate reasons to flame us, they'll go make them up from hearsay. Next thing you know, National Enquirer will start their own Macintosh section. I don't know why I bother. People are so happy to be judge and jury around here. Sorry to throw a few facts on the fire. -- Chuq Von Rospach <+> chuq@apple.com <+> [This is myself speaking] mumble..mumble...mumble...mumbleLemieuxSCORE!!!!!!!...mumble...mumble..mumble
