[comp.sys.mac.system] HyperCard 2.0 upgrade

rang@cs.wisc.edu (Anton Rang) (10/21/90)

Here's the info I got from a local users' group.

  (1) The upgrade from HyperCard 1.2.x to 2.0 is free; you should be
      able to get it at your friendly dealer.  This is just the
      program and stacks (5 disks); of course, documentation is extra
      (and from what I've seen of HC 2.0 it might be worth getting the
      whole package--they're charging $35 at the place I checked).

  (2) HyperCard 2.0 requires System 6.0.5 or later, but doesn't need
      6.0.7.

  (3) HyperCard versions before 2.0 will not work reliably under
      System 6.0.7.  (Sounds are known to cause problems; I don't
      know of any other things offhand.)  It's probably worth taking
      the time to go get the upgrade.

  Hopefully, all of this is accurate; I'm mostly just repeating what
I've been told.
