[SunRescue] Video board

[Gil Young]

I remember an old sun 3 server I had worked on in college, it wash chock 
full of all kinds of I'O boards, A/D stuff, and image processing cards.  It 
had more ports and flexibility than any of the sun 4's in the office at the 
time, it just didn't have the processing capability.  I wish I kept up with 
it, it would have been well worth a dumpster dive, it was an awesome R&D 
machine.
