Mant, that's a good solution. I tried to sneak looks at the manual, but wasn't able to spot anything. Meanwhile, I've discovered that many people in the office had problems with this monitor, so I feel less stupid.

Enjoy being the video highlight of the Christmas party.

Don't tell anyone, but it took me 3 days to figure out how to turn on my monitor. So hey, you're outperforming me already by 33%!!

Now that's just piss poor design. Sure, it's sleek, but if you can't find the damn "On" button, it's just a big, expensive paperweight. Whatever paper is.
