I just use my .emacs file to set my initial geometry.  It's easy to
change, and it's more portable than using the registry.  For example,
I have something like this:

(setq initial-frame-alist '((top . 0)
                            (left . 0)
                            (width . 80)
                            (height . 50)
                            (font . "-*-Courier 
New-normal-r-*-*-11-*-*-*-c-*-*-ansi-")
                            (foreground-color . "Black")
                            (background-color . "LightGray")
;;                            (cursor-color "Red")
                            ))
(setq default-frame-alist '((top . 0)
                            (left . 0)
                            (width . 128)
                            (height . 50)
                            (font . "-*-Courier 
New-normal-r-*-*-11-*-*-*-c-*-*-ansi-")
                            (foreground-color . "Black")
                            (background-color . "LightGray")
;;                            (cursor-color "Red")
                            ))
