Yes, there are 4 disks in the distribution.  However, one disk contains a System
file and other files found on the other three disks. So you would only have
to download only three disks worth of stuff.  The help stack is over 400k.  You
really need atleast two 800k drives if you want to read the help.

The local Mac user's group was told that we could buy a license ($75) and then
freely distribute HyperCard to our members.
