[rescue] WTB: Sun 3/80 frame buffer

I lucked into a Sun 3/80 recently, but the ECL framebuffer (501-1402) 
seems to be bad.

Bring-up over serial indicates that the P4 frame buffer is not found. 
There are a couple of chips on the board that get very hot, so I will be 
chasing down if there are available replacements.

In the meantime, I'd consider buying either

501-1402 - ECL mono framebuffer

Though I would prefer

501-1443 - the color P4 frame buffer. Apparently there is a version 
501-1248 which is BNC, but 1443 is 13W3

I realize this might be a hard find, but this is certainly the right 
group to ask!

In the meantime I will also be figuring out how to get an OS installed, 
but that seems documented and images/files are available...
