education-revolution Digest, Vol 3, Issue 4

[Mike Harland]

Hi Jerry,

I'm a language professor in Glasgow, Scotland, so there are some of us 
close to Rev Home!

I am one of those who used HyperCard in the late 80s thru the 90s, and 
I am still waiting for Rev to treat us educators with the same 
friendliness as Apple did - certainly no favours to us University 
people, just to K12s, even though I am training students to use IT in 
their later teaching who might expand the use of Rev! We used to use 
HyperCard but had to switch to Dreamweaver and HTML when Windows became 
the standard PC GUI here.

I am therefore waiting for the app to settle down - I am still not 
convinced of its stability, even if it did give us the cross-platform 
capability we MAC HC fans always desired. I am certainly not going to 
keep buying the app every year at a price only fit for developers and 
commercial users.

Anyway, I just thought I would convince you that there are probably 
more people silently watching and waiting like me, but the poor 
launching of this section does not give me confidence, just as it 
failed a couple of years ago.

Cheers
Mike Harland
