[comp.sys.apple2] Hypercard GS vs. HyperStudio?

mcgurrin@MWUNIX.MITRE.ORG (02/21/91)

I'm planning to use some of my tax refund on enhancing my GS, and have been
thinking about either Hypercard GS or HyperStudio.  Any opinions on the 
relative merits, long-term support, etc?  (I know this group has lots of
opinions about EVERYTHING!).

I know that Hypercard takes more memory, and I like the included sound
digitizer and sound support of HyperStudio.  Can I use sounds digitized with
HyperStudio for other things, like the SysBeep utilities, or routines that
use Acer sound files?  On the flip side, the ability to convert Hypercard stacks
to the Mac is a plus, since I could develop something at home, then convert to
Macs at work.  What do folks out there think the issues are in choosing 
between them, and what are the strengths and weaknesses of each?
