_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     This generic function returns the geometry for a chip/platform.

_U_s_a_g_e:

     getGeometry(object)

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

  object: See 'showMethods("getGeometry")', but generally 'object' will
          be a subclass of 'PkgSeed'.

_D_e_t_a_i_l_s:

     The idea is that the input files can be used to determine the
     geometry for each platform.  For example, the method for
     'AffySNPPDInfoPkgSeed' objects reads the header of the CDF file to
     extract the geometry.

_V_a_l_u_e:

     A list with two elements nrows and ncols

_A_u_t_h_o_r(_s):
