From my (admittedly limited) experience with AT&T 6300's, I have come to the
following conclusion:
   AT&T graphics can have the same resolution as (or better than) EGA, but
the addressing etc. of their graphics makes it impossible to use software
designed for the EGA with the extended graphics mode.  What this means is that
you will have to contact the supplier of your software and see if they make
a version that can use the 6300 graphics.  If the program uses different
drivers for each video card, there might be a driver for the 6300.  If not,
you might be out of luck.

    Hope this helps...
