    The copy of HyperCard I got contained 4 disks, NOT 9 disks. Personally
I think 4*800K is too much to download anyway (although the system disk could
be left out). I can't believe that people are bitching about paying such low
price for a (potentially) great product.

Note: The author of the posting I am replying to was not bitching, he merely
had the facts incorrect.
