If bitching doesn't work it sounds like outright screaming may be the only option you have left. Or can you call someone to repair it and charge the repair to Greg somehow?
About the monitor settings...did you right click on the desktop? Right click, click 'Properties' and then click the 'Settings' tab. Then look at what the 'screen resolution' slider is set at. I have a wide screen monitor now, so I have it set at 1440 x 900, as high as it will go...which makes everything on the desktop tinier (the icons and everything shrink down.)
Slide it around and click 'apply' until you get the result you want.
