	Luckily, they have rocket scientists building them.  (Some of the
smartest people I know work for Nvidia and ATI.)  Actually, in this case
the graphics cards are fine.  It's really that the monitor drivers fail to 
correctly detect attached monitors under certain conditions.  So the monitor
comes up in some lame low-res SVGA mode.  It seems to me to happen much more
frequently on a "modern" LCD/digital connection than to a CRT and a 15 pin
cable, or even to an LCD on a vga cable.
