Goodbye good friend

Today is a dark day indeed.
The lease expired on my Trinitron 21" monitor here at work and they're not gonna get me another one. In the name of cost cutting, the biggest CRT they have is 18". I opted for the 17" IBM Thinkvision L170P lcd monitor (it has a larger viewable area than the 18" CRT).
The new one just showed up and my trinitron took that long walk down to asset management.
A moment of silence please.
The new one takes up only the smallest footprint on my desk (as compared to the mamoth trinitron). That, of course, is it's only redeeming value.
It's got blurry columns. I've adjusted the clock and phase settings but that just seems to shift the areas of blur around on the monotor. The higher the clock, the more to the right the columns move. Lower the clock and they move to the left. I played with the phase but it doesn't seem to do much of anything.
*sigh*
