DogTag Workstation Identifier

I wrote this code inorder to identify our servers that were connected to a KVM switch. A KVM switch allows you to connect multiple computers to a single keyboard, monitor, and mouse. When switching from one server to another, I found it difficult to discern which server I was using. So the DogTag program goes to the registy and gets the computer name. Then it displays the computer name in the upper right corner of the screen. DogTag is designed to use the color of the desktop to make it seem like the name is part of the background.
