I have a few extra copies of this classic. Willing to send to anyone who thinks they are still priceless, like I do.

(I'm in the UK so I think postage would be expensive... but:)

If you're talking about HyperTalk 2.2: The Book, I just want to second the opinion that it is "priceless". I have my copy that I purchased a year or two ago on Amazon, without a doubt the best reference to HyperTalk ever published.

Yes, Winkler, Kamins and DeVoto.

Don't ask why, but I have five copies. I wanted to make sure that even if the sun burned out, I would not be left bereft.

LOL. Although in that case, you'd have to be reading by flashlight.

Hey Alejandro,

If your Analytical Engine book comes with the floppy disk, would you be able to make an image of it? I have the book but not the disk...

Also, what other HyperCard books have you got / are getting. I currently have:
HyperCard 2.0 Handbook
HyperCard 2.2 Handbook
Hyperdictionary
Understanding HyperCard
XCMD's for HyperCard
HyperCard: The Complete Reference
Inside HyperCard 2
Understanding HyperTalk
HyperCard Power
HyperCard and Macintosh: A Primer
The Complete SuperCard Handbook
Cooking with HyperTalk 2.0
HyperTalk 2.2: The Book
The Complete Book of HyperTalk 2
HyperCard Developers Guide
Hands on HyperCard
The Waite Group's HyperTalk Bible
HyperMedia Design with HyperCard
HyperTalk (Microsoft Reference)
Compute's Quick and Easy Guide to HyperCard
HyperTalk and HyperText
HyperCard 2 Quickstart
HyperTalk Programming
HyperTalk 2.0: The Book
...and of course the aforementioned Analytical Engine with HyperCard.

A long list I know, but I'm always on the lookout for other interesting HyperCard books, so let me know if you know of any good ones I've missed.

Andrew
