Well, every time there is a new Supercard release I download the trial and,
every time, I wonder why I do that. But I do the same sort of thing for HyperNEXT as well
[ http://www.tigabyte.com ] so I'm obviously bonkers.

I owned a copy of SuperCard in 1995 and really could never work out how to do things
efficiently (after all Colour was doable in Hypercard at that stage).

never got used.  I found the whole system baffling, an annoying workflow.
I always went back to HC.

I, personally, playing on my G5 running PPC 10.5, cannot for the life of

advantages of Supercard over Livecode. It strikes me that this is probably
largely used by people
who have dug themselves into a Macintosh-only corner.

On the other side of the fence . . . SupercCard just emailed me about
their
public beta for 4.8.

Since it's mac only (again), I have no interest, and it apparently still
doesn't have things I need from LC 5 (and I presume at least 4).  (For
that
matter, the only things that I *really* need that weren't in SuperCard
1.5,
which ran the older version of my program in the 80s . . .)

But I wonder what they'd do if I presented my 1.5 disks for an upgrade :)
