AT&T 6300 - test-drb@ccmp.vtda.org

3 Mar 1998

...
 I'll differ on this point.  one of the primary
things that killed the  '6300
...
 was that it was NOT totally IBM compatable.  The video
subsystem (noted
below) is a prime example. Is it possible to somehow slap a CGA or any standard
monitor into
one of those?

...
  Hard drives
were optional in them and not very reliable IMO.  
The drives they used overall were not notably better or worse than most  of
...
 the time.  They did make some poor choices at times on
who to buy their
drives from.
 I will say that my only experience w/a 6300 was one that got to me
because of a dead hard drive. I ended up gutting and trashing it. I
hold old microchips in the fan housing. This was also my only experience
with a dead hard drive.

Was the thing designed for UNIX or was it just a plain "enhanced" PC
clone?

P.S. In OOP, can an object kill another object to inherit it?
