[SunRescue] Creator 2D/PCI card in Ultra 5?

[Chris Drelich]

I wouldn't put it past them.  Remember intel with the 486 DX/SX?  Maybe someone
wants to try putting a U5 with a U10 riser card in a U10 case?  If this is the
case, it looks like U5s could be upgraded to U10s for ~$200.  However,
something might be disabled in the firmware.
