From this discussion at Kerkythea forum, Notareal placed some nice links for helping calibrate your monitor.

This is somehow oriented to dvd, blu-ray, hdtv, consumer calibration. It's interesting but for computer... I'm not sure.

I have a Spyder3 Pro and it does a great job.

The only problem is when I take the image to another projector or monitor...makes you want to calibrate the world!

I got the Spider3 and Print3 set...printer calibration is an art...an art that I haven't mastered! :oops:
