I will be using them mostly for storage of large picture databases, with associated data. I may have need for short segments of motion video. I am considering using Hypercard. I would appreciate suggestions as to which medium is better, what hardware interfacing issues there are, and any software issues that I should be aware of. Thanx, Lewis G. Pringle
