<continuation> I note that the 2 sample stacks don't seem to mean much to me. The hyperdex seems to have extremely minimal functionality. The calendar seemed to be very buggy, very hard to get it to display the current month's data, among other things. I was never quite sure where I was or where I was going. Eight – a question I asked earlier – will there be any way of converting Hypercard stacks to Ultracard stacks? If not, is it likely there will be enough uc users for software vendors to start writing stacks for uc? And what would those stacks be able to do? I hope no one takes any of this the wrong way. This is just an initial, somewhat uneducated impression of what may well have the makings of a great Ami product. And I note that I am very glad that Mike took the trouble of posting this demo here.
