    As far as I know, the later Sun monitors can only be set-up
    using software. They use Sony's Digital Alignment Software (DAS).
    If you search on Google, using these terms, you should find some
    sites. But I've never seen it being used.
    And I can't find it on the Sony website.
    It *does* exist tho...
    This guy's dissertation mentions it, and a little about how it works:
