I had a friend that had the same problem as you guys. She moved into a
new apartment and her monitor started shaking. I told her to move out of
California cause of all the earth quakes :-D

Ok, joking aside. Her REAL problem was the power in her new apartment.
When we tested it it was not quite 110. She called an electrician out
and found the problem in the breaker box. There was some substandard
breakers there that was not making contact or something. Might want to
check out the power. Oh, wait. You have a UPS... Hmmmm. Might be that
the move messed up your monitor somehow. Try taking it to another
location and see if it still shakes. If it doesn't, there might be some
High Tension lines outside that are interrupting the monitor. 

Might be The video card too. Just a guess. 

Ok, so I didn't help that much.. Sorry. Thought the joke would cheer you
up though :)
