Either my math is wrong or your measurements are off.  You say your stack is
657 pixels high, and your old iMac screen is 768 pixels high.  You *should*
have 111 pixels to spare (minus the height of the menubar) for displaying
your stack.  The only other thing I can think of is perhaps checking the
windowBoundingRect property.
