I haven't ever seen a (pirated) version of HyperCard on the WWW, but I'll bet
money you can find it on Hotline somewhere.  Boy, there's a case for
abandonware if there ever was one.

Word...uhmmm...double-check with System 6 Heaven on this, but I think version 4
is the latest that'll run on System 6.  Converting between versions of Word
that old and whatever the last version of WriteNow was *should* be built into
one or both programs, but if it's not, see if you can go through an RTF
intermediate.

There's a label next to the jumper, but I can't remember what it says.  Remind
me :)

Search Google for "Loten am Mac" and brush up on your German ;)

Rebuilding the desktop might help.
