I’m not very impressed with the results I’ve achieved so far when compared to the colour accuracy achieved on the LaCie 22”, which is ‘very nice’. But this is the first LCD screen I have calibrated and I will happily plead ‘ignorance’
I have an EyeOne Photo. Loved it for CRTs. Its super for RGB printers. Its not so great with LCDs... especially lower end screens like a typical laptop screen. Neil and others suggested I try BasICColor display instead. It works far better with the EyeOne spectro on LCDs. Give it a try. I think there's a demo available. In the US something like $150 gets you a license that's good for three computers. Mac, Windows or any combo of platforms up to three total stations. If the PowerBook screen is the only LCD you're trying to calibrate I'd say don't bother buying more software. Just use Adobe Gamma if you don't like what EyeOne Match is giving you. Even the best calibrated laptop screen is still pretty mediocre when it comes to calibration standards. Its just not worth worrying about (or spending money on). If on the other hand you have other LCD monitors I think you'll be happy with the improvement that BasICColor provides for only a modest additional expense over what you've already invested.
