Toine -
Your thought got me thinking about a website I visited a few years ago.
Never thought I'd find it bu reading this thread again today I googled
"vista color management motorcycle image" and badda-bing badda-boom
there it was. Check out this image:

According the website -
If the motorcycle is blue, the embedded profile was completely ignored.
(you don't have color mangment)
If the motorcycle is green, the embedded ICC profile was honored. (you
have color managment enabled
If the motorcycle is red, then you're running Windows Vista™ and you
have color mangment enabled
The discussion thread for this is here:
http://www.luminous-landscape.com/forum/index.php?topic=32115.0;wap2
FWIW - on my Windows 7 machine with color management enabled the
motorcycle is red. On the same machine, using Firefox with color
management enabled, the motorcycle is green. On another machine, running
WinXP with no color management (other than calibrize) the motorcyle is
blue.
Hopefully this is helpful.

What if the monitor is factory calibrated and has a devices specific profile?
Calibration could/should be more accurate if you spend enough money on
a accurate device.
The real problem/suspect is Windows (and maybe OSX). Windows for sure
can't handle wide gamut profiles with or without a PhD in color
management.

I would also say that getting a wide gamut monitor before you get
calibration/profiling hardware and software is getting your priorities
wrong, but perhaps that's just me.
