[comp.sys.mac.hypercard] HyperCard 2.0 vs. SuperCard 1.5 ?

shaul@cmi.com (Shaul Markovitch) (06/15/90)

I am trying to decide between using HyperCard and SuperCard for a new 
project.  The problem is that both products are going to come out in a new 
version in few weeks, and I have to evaluate them using the available 
information (product announcement from Silicon Beach about SC and rumors 
(MacWeek etc.) about HyperCard 2.0).
Meanwhile I found the followings:

Main advantages of SC 1.5 over HC 2.0:
   Color
   Object drawing  
   Scorllable windows
   (maybe) Larger windows
   Dozens of small features

Main advantages of HC 2.0 over SC 1.5:
   Speed (probably much faster than SC when compiled)
   Hypertext (sticky buttons/active text)
   Multifinder Background support

Can other people please comment about the two products or send any 
information that may be useful for deciding between the two?

Replies can be posted or emailed (and I will summarize )
    Thanks
