                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                June 30, 1997

                                  (Unaudited)

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared
by the Fund in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles,
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commis-
sion.  In the opinion of Management, all adjustments (consisting of normal 
recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
included.  Certain amounts on the 1996 financial statements have been 
reclassified to conform to the presentation in 1997.

1.  EQUIPMENT LEASED

    Equipment on lease consists primarily of computer equipment under operating 
    leases  The lessees have agreements with the manufacturer to provide 
    maintenance for the leased equipment.  The Fund's operating leases are for 
    initial lease terms of 12 to 60 months.  Generally, operating leases will
    not recover all of the undepreciated cost and related expenses of its 
    rental equipment during the initial lease terms and the Fund is prepared to 
    remarket the equipment in future years.  Fund policy is to review quarterly 
    the expected economic life of its rental equipment in order to determine 
    the recoverability of its undepreciated cost.  Recent and anticipated 
    technological developments affecting computer equipment and competitive 
    factors in the marketplace are considered among other things, as part of 
    this review.  In accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, 
    the Fund writes down its rental equipment to its estimated net realizable 
    value when the amounts are reasonably estimated and only recognizes gains 
    upon actual sale of its rental equipment.  As a result, $92,671 and 
    $658,853 was charged to write-down of equipment to net realizable value for 
    June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.  Any future losses are dependent upon 
    unanticipated technological developments affecting the computer equipment 
    industry in subsequent years.

    The Fund also has equipment leased under the direct financing method in
    accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 13.  This
    method provides for recognition of income (the excess of the aggregate
    future rentals and estimated additional amounts recoverable upon expira-
    tion of the lease over the related equipment cost) over the life of the
    lease using the interest method.

    The net investment in direct financing leases as of June 30, 1997 is

2.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

    The General Partner receives 5% or 2% of gross rental payments from equip-
    ment under operating leases and full pay-out leases, respectively, for
    administrative and management services performed on behalf of the Fund.
    Full pay-out leases are noncancellable leases for which rental payments 
    during the initial term are at least sufficient to recover the purchase 
    price of the equipment, including acquisition fees.  This management fee
    is paid monthly only if and when the Limited Partners have received 
    distributions for the period from January 1, 1990 through the end of the 
    most recent quarter equal to a return for such period at a rate of 12% per 
    year on the aggregate amount paid for their units.

    The General Partner may also receive up to 3% of the proceeds from the
    sale of the Fund's equipment for services and activities to be performed
    in connection with the disposition of equipment.  The payment of this sales 
    fee is deferred until the Limited Partners have received cash distributions 
    equal to the purchase price of their units plus a 12% cumulative 
    compounded priority return.  Based on current estimates, it is not expected 
    that the Fund will be required to pay this sales fee to the General 
    Partner.

    Additionally, the General Partner and its parent company are reimbursed by
    the Fund for certain costs of services and materials used by or for the
    Fund except those items covered by the above-mentioned fees.  Following is
    a summary of fees and costs of services and materials charged by the 
    General Partner or its parent company during the three and six months ended
    June 30, 1997 and 1996:

Item 2:  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

    Fidelity Leasing Income Fund VI, L.P. had revenues of $1,108,859 and 
$1,402,627 for the three months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively
and $2,465,581 and $2,589,631 for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996,
respectively.  Rental income from the leasing of computer equipment accounted 
for 96% and 71% of total revenues for the second quarter of 1997 and 1996, 
respectively and 93% and 78% of total revenues for the six months ended 
June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.  The decrease in total revenues in 1997 
is primarily attributable to the decrease in the net gain on sale of equipment.
The Fund recognized a net gain on sale of equipment of $107,016 during the six 
months ended June 30, 1997 as compared to $432,064 for the same period in 1996.
Additionally, the decrease in interest income contributed to the overall 
decrease in revenues due to lower cash balances available for investment by the 
Fund in the first six months of 1997 as compared to the same period in 
1996.  However, the increase in rental income in 1997 reduced the overall 
decrease in revenues.  Rental income increased by approximately $1,060,000 
during the six months ended June 30, 1997 because of rents generated from 
equipment purchases made since June 1996 as well as rental income recognized on 
1996 equipment purchases for which a full six months was earned in 1997 and 
only a portion of the six months was earned in 1996.  This increase was 
mitigated by approximately $807,000 because of equipment which came off lease 
and was re-leased at lower rental rates or sold.

    Expenses were $1,060,358 and $969,530 for the three months ended June 30, 
1997 and 1996, respectively and $2,213,641 and $2,414,348 for the six months 
ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.  Depreciation comprised 83% and 73% 
of total expenses for the second quarter of 1997 and 1996, respectively and 83% 
and 60% of total expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, 
respectively.  The decrease in expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1997 
as compared to the same period in 1996 is primarily attributable to a decrease 
in the write-down of equipment to net realizable value.  Based upon the 
quarterly review of the recoverability of the undepreciated cost of rental 
equipment, the Fund charged $92,671 to operations to write down equipment to 
its estimated net realizable value for the six months ended June 30, 1997 as 
compared to $658,853 for the same period in 1996.  Any future losses are 
dependent upon unanticipated technological developments affecting the computer 
equipment industry in subsequent years.  Depreciation expense increased for the 
first six months of 1997 due to approximately $5.8 million of equipment 
purchased since June 1996, which reduced the overall decrease in expenses 
during the six months ended June 30, 1997 as compared to the same period in 
1996.

    The Fund's net income was $48,501 and $433,097 for the three months ended 
June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively and $251,940 and $175,283 for the six 
months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.  The earnings per equivalent 
limited partnership unit, after earnings allocated to the General Partner,
were $1.63 and $14.46 based on a weighted average number of equivalent limited
partnership units outstanding of 29,418 and 29,578 for the three months ended
June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.  The earnings per equivalent limited
partnership unit, after earnings allocated to the General Partner, were $8.48
and $5.72 based on a weighted average number of equivalent limited partner-
ship units outstanding of 29,414 and 30,088 for the six months ended June 30, 
1997 and 1996, respectively.

Item 2:  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

    The Fund generated cash from operations of $959,081 and $922,396, for
the purpose of determining cash available for distribution and distributed 3% 
and 8% of these amounts during the second quarter of 1997 and 1996, 
respectively and 5% and 11% of these amounts in July and August 1997 and 
1996, respectively.  For the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, the Fund 
generated $2,071,476 and $1,855,488 of cash from operations and distributed 
5% and 12% of these amounts during the first six months of 1997 and 1996, 
respectively and 2% and 5% of these amounts in July and August 1997 and 1996,
respectively.

ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

    The Fund will continue to purchase computer equipment with cash available 
from operations which is not distributed to partners.  The Fund purchased 
$2,313,751 and $475,999 of equipment during the six months ended June 30, 1997
and 1996, respectively.

    The cash position of the Fund is reviewed daily and cash is invested on a 
short-term basis.

    The Fund's cash from operations is expected to continue to be adequate to
cover all operating expenses and contingencies during the next twelve month 
period.
