For all those times that you needed to change the position, magnifcation and scaling effect in the kind of hurry that couldn't wait for System Preference to load I have a tip for you. Actually, it is another fine tip only for pros, so recreation macinbytes beware.

I still wish Bill would take PowerPoint out back and shoot it, let the boys in software design come up with a better way to make life miserable.
