Well having repaired TV's and such since I was 10 years old now (way to
many years now).
The image on the screen is created by blue, red and green electron guns
that fire at the front of the monitor screen. The pink is due to one gun
being not as strong as the other two creating the pink color.

Smack the ever-living crap out of it.  On the top and sides... don't  
be gentle.
Seriously.

Consider it failed, unless you like looking at a pink monitor. If the  
percussive maintenance works it may be fine for a day, a month or  
until it fails completely. But you can eventually expect it to return.
Hitting it does work sometimes. I have seen many pink monitors over  
the years. Its strange why they all turn pink instead of some other  
color.

P.S.  Bill your computer says its January 49th? See below. What type  
of calendar is your mac using?

Hey folks,

Another remote computer fix-it question:

My wife says that last night during the big thunderstorms, the power
went out suddenly. It came back on after a couple of minutes. Now the
old tube monitor in the basement has a decidedly pink tint to it.

Any clues on how to play with this?

Bill
