[Coco] Cat 5 to VGA

Since the highest frequency of any component video is about 6MHz 
so just about any 75 Ohm cable should work well. 

As for Rat Shack's gold pated connectors, IMHO are a waste of 
money. The amount of gold plated does little to help connection 
loss especially at frequencies below 20 MHz. A nice sales gimmick 
to get more money.
