Not if I've got to buy a $25,000 Sun 3/60. Actually, I have no idea how much
a Sun 3/60 costs, but I'm sure that it's much more than a Mac Plus. I'll bet
that it's also more than a Mac IIci, which runs 4-6 times faster than a
Mac Plus.
At any rate, someone else pointed out that the library just permits source
compatibility, not object compatibility. You can't just take HyperCard and
plunk it into your Sun and expect it to work. (Heck, we have a hard enough time
getting it to run on Macs...)
