Hypercard, well, I've given up on it because of all of the problems I
had with it under the original release of the GCR software.  As far as
sound goes, I haven't had any problems.  I'm using version 2.65 of the
GCR software and System 6.0.3.  The sound works just fine for me, the
only disappointment is that I can't change the warning bell sound.

Good luck with the Mega-2, I've heard that people have had problems with
the power supply not being strong enough to support the GCR, resulting
in frequent crashes, but this is also supposed to show up in ST mode
as well, so you should be able to find out if you are going to have any
problems right off.
