What WON'T run on an AT&T 6300(+)?
 
     How about IBM's 5250 Emulation Adapter (Latest release)?
 
     Also, Intel Aboveboard/PC's won't work with the 6300(+).
 
    
I've personally verified this, using AT&T 6300+ machines, ROM v 2.08B or
something like that.  An AT&T techie told me that the Aboveboard SHOULD
work, but Intel says that 'Installation in a AT&T 6300 machine is not supported.

Feh.
