[SunRescue] Ultra 5 Monitors

[Jason Alexander]

The Ultra 5 and 10 both actually use an ATI card similar to the version
used in many PC's and not only is the connector the same, but it signal is
like that of a PC monitor too.  A nice sony monitor would do well on these.
 In previous Sun machines they required fixed-frequency monitors...the
ultra5 and 10 do not require such.
