The point was not marketing was the failure of HyperCard
but that without proper marketing it will fall like HypeCard.
Apple did not even need to market HyperCard since they
could have given it away forever and continued to invest
in its research and development. It would have cost them
pennies in the long run and had they made it crossplatform
it would have brought in enough new users to pay for itself.

Ummm, I don't think marketing of any sort, be it good, bad or
indifferent,
had anything to do with the demise of HyperCard. IMHO I believe
that was
very heavily driven by one individuals take on 'Apples Universe' at
the
time.
Maybe a better comparison would have been the Newton? Not really sure
though, I never owned one but I've read that many thought it was
ahead of
it's time, better than many PDAs that followed.
