This really depends on what you want to do. HyperCard has a larger
(mac) user base, so you can transfer files from there.
Hyperstudio has the advantages of a runtime module, built-in support
for "multimedia" stuff (i.e. CD-ROM, VOC, etc.), and a nifty scripting
language (Logo-like, dunno if that update is out yet).

So, for GS only, or if you plan to do a newsletter with it, go HyperStudio,
if only because it's faster and has a runtime module. If you want to convert
existing stacks, use HCGS. Ideally, you buy the Sys 6 CD-ROM (on which HCGS is,
among other things) _and_ HyperStudio :)
