You can do that?  I thought that's what he might've been thinking, but I was 
unaware that there are any other methods to obtain the screen
size/dimensions - is this sort of info available in the data you can get from 
the monitor via DDC?  In which case it would only work with relatively new 
displays anyway...

Cheers,
Adam.
