I realize this is a response to a long forgotten subject but....
The real question is about 640x400 graphics.  The AT&T indeed does have
640x400 graphics capabilities.  I don't know of any software that takes
advantage of it except gwbasic for the 6300.  There is a "super" resolution
mode (in addition to the mediun=320x200 and the high=640x200 modes) which
looks great when it comes to drawing circles, etc.  Since basic can do it,
you can also.  Unfortunately, it seems that the only "colors" available for
this mode at the present time are black and white, but this is expected to
change.  This mode is invoked by the basic command 'screen 100', where
'screen 1' and 'screen 2' are for medium and high res respectively.  I have
a green monitor (my color is back ordered) and since the monitors show the
same screen, the super res mode will display on my color monitor when I get
it.  I might add that the ATT color monitor is a *very* high res monitor
capable of excellent text and graphic displays (that is, text looks great
on it).
