HyperStudio probably has more features than HyperCard IIgs.  I prefer
HyperCard IIgs, because of its scripting language (HyperTalk).  I've
had a brief look at HyperStudio 3.x's scripting language and I wasn't
impressed.

The main advantage of HyperCard IIgs is its compatibility with
Macintosh HyperCard - the scripting languages are almost identical (the
Mac version has a few more features) and it is possible to translate
stacks between the two.

I own both products.  I use HyperCard on a regular basis.  I haven't
used HyperStudio much in the last few years.
