[comp.sys.att] Should I buy a 6300?

pgil@sphinx.uchicago.edu (paul gilna) (10/08/87)

	OK, This should be fun :-)

	I hereby solicit information, opinion or any
	other viable thought process on the advisability
	of purchasing a AT&T 6300PC. (not plus)

	I should be obliged if those of you who are 
	predisposed to answer consider the following:

	1.	Given the current discounting in progress
		would a 286 clone make more sense.
	2.	Can you recomend a good supplier.
	3.	Does the standard monochrome have its
		limits amidst today's standards.
	4.	Can I play Flight Simulator :-)

Thanks in advance

Yes, flight simulator works fine on the 6300.  It uses the CGA-simulation
mode of the AT&T video system, however, so the video has less
resolution than is available from software designed specifically for
this system.
