Oh sure! just gimme HyperCard for the Mac ][ + and I'll gladly do it! I think you miss the point here. Education market, without something like hypercard, is a wasted potential. The thing is that in order to create a GOOD educational software, you have to put as little limitations on the creator's creativity as possible. If you have to write educational software, using a dull (note the double meaning here) programming language, like pascal, and waste most of your time on facing language limitations, then you will not get much beyond what we already have. I want to be able to do more then just arithmetic training program, and to do that, I need a Mac and Hypercard. O.S.
