In reference to the original question:

I used the term "downloadable" in a pretty broad sense.  What I meant,
of course, was "will I be able to copy hypercard from someone else?"
(legally, of course) NOT "will I be able to download from some service
to whom I pay $10 / hour?"

Secondly, I hope this question is not taken as a flame/b*tch.  It's
just that on a full time student's salary ($0), I don't want to spend
$50 if I don't have to.  After all, several people have said that the
Hypercard user's manual is not really needed anyway, so I just figured
I would get a copy and purchase the scripting manual.

Again, the question: will I be able to legally (this is very important
to me) copy Hypercard (ala system upgrades)?

Thanks,
