From your message, I would think that you aren't really aware of what
HyperCard really is and can do!  It's an excellent "alternative OS"
for graphical access to databases with cross-links and programmed
actions, that encourages vendors to provide useful "stacks" of
information via CD-ROM and other mass media.  It makes traditional
ideas about database systems look sick.  Spend a few hours under the
guidance of a HyperCard guru and you'll probably be sold on the idea.
