Same exact thing here!  I finally made it so can look up the computer by
the monitor number attached to it because I got tired of wasting time
trying to explain the difference.

We have asset tags on our PCs and monitors, whenever I ask someone what
the asset tag is on their PC most of the time I end up with the monitor
tag so I can't find it to remote in..

        Well, we have a body of students who use whatever computer is
not occupied by its full-time assigned user.  The computer name is in
big black letters on a big white lable.  Still, these students, again
working at whatever machine they can find available, send me an email
saying "My computer did this...".  (Hey, I just checked the DNS and AD
tables.  "MyComputer" doesn't exist!)
