I am considering getting some calibration software, namely ColorVision's moniter spyder with PhotoCal ($199) and their Profiler RGB, both of which seem to be very popular. The latter requires one to have a flatbed scanner, so I am wondering what flatbed would be decent for this purpose. I really

Here is a follow-up on Minolta's warranty service quality: it sucks. My scanner developed a problem after 20 or 30 scans, when it began leaving a cyan toned line across the long dimension of the image. It appeared that the CCD had a few pixels fail or maybe some crud on them. A couple people o
