Monitor Configuration Heaven

In a previous post, I was in monitor configuration hell. My shiny new Dell 20″ Flat Panel wouldn’t stick to 1600 x 1200 resolution after a reboot.

Well, once they worked out the bugs in OS X 10.2.8, I installed it and the problem went away. I don’t know if there was anything that specifically addressed this problem in the update or the installation just jiggled something, but it’s working beautifully now. I have discovered that I have one bad pixel, but the other 1,919,999 are very nice. Most vendors won’t replace a monitor unless it has several anyway. It’s not like it will affect anything. Of course, as I’m typing this, I move right across that one bad pixel and it’s very obvious.

When I go to work now, I’m finding my 19″ CRT fuzzy and oddly curved. It’s always been that way, but I guess I’ve raised my standards now. Maybe if I complain of headaches, they’ll get me an LCD there too. 🙂
