I'll have to think about whether it is worth the money. The cross grade price is $129... which is a lot to preserve the one stack I have which I really like. Maybe I'll use this as an excuse to get FileMaker, or perhaps use it as an excuse to get into MySQL or PostgreSQL. The thing I really liked about Hypercard was the easy graphical front end for accessing the data... which might not be so easy with the latter.
