I have a couple Sparc 10's, a 20" Sun monitor and some misc Sun equip at
my shop.  Don't think you can adapt the video to a standard RGB
monitor.  I also have the AIU/RJ45 transcievers - Allied Telesys 210T. 
Contact me directly to to talk about pricing - you can check this stuff
out at my shop to make sure you know what config you are getting.

thanks
