You don't know, or do you think it's classified?  <grin>

It's a more-or-less well-known fact that the Mac LC, IIsi, IIci, and IIfx are
the only Macs with 32-bit clean ROMs.  Of course, the point is moot since
System 7.0 won't let you into 32-bit Addressing Mode unless you have 32-bit
Clean ROMs to begin with.  If you don't, the dialog doesn't even show up.

So, if he's having problems with 32-bit mode and HyperCard, one could assume
that he must be -in- 32-bit mode, and thus have a Mac which allows him to do
so.  Either that, or he's got MODE32 already...
