(This isn't exactly related to the above discussion...)
How many dealers (outside of the West Coast) have HyperCard right now?
I have been calling the usual mail order places, and they don't have
it, nor do they know if or when they will get it.  One place said they
heard that it won't be available until late September or early October!
(but they also said that they saw an ad in the New York Times from a dealer
who supposedly has it now...)

My dealer (in Toronto) said it would be out in "2 weeks" (he said that 2 weeks
ago, and he said it again this weekend...).
