For my 27" iMac
tellapplication "Finder"
get bounds of window of desktop
{item 3 of result, item 4 of result}
end tell
-> {2560, 1440}
For multiple monitor installations, install the cscreen CLI tool, available
from
<http://hintsforums.macworld.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1416&d=1156306718>,
and use it to discern and change the settings for numerous monitors.
