Ah, the tragedy of it all. For almost 10 minutes Friday, I had a Sony
Trinitron wide aspect ratio 24" monitor at work. Had it just long enough to
whack all the settings on my machine when they decided to give it to a
'real' engineer instead of the web guy.

I didn't cry more than five minutes or so.
