Quite ironically, I had exactly this problem yesterday!
My girlfriend phoned me in a mad panic, saying that everything worked fine, just the whole display was appearing as a negative.
I had a look on the Apple support site - apparently this is a built-in feature of OSX, part of Universal Access, I presume to help with the visually-impaired (supposedly, negative images can be easier to recognise!!).
The keystorke to get it back is: Control-Option-Command, then press 8 to toggle between the settings.
Here's the Apple link: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107329
All should now be fine!!!
