Rating: - It's a start, anyway -- Amazon has a great price, too!
I guess you could say when it come to ease of use -- in terms of just setting up this gizmo and running monitor adjustments -- it gets 4 stars, maybe 5, for ease of use. Install the software in a minute, position the sensor, start the program, lie to the software and say your monitor has no controls of any kind (Spyder will then kick off a completely automated, hands-free scan), and less than 10 minutes later you're home free. Unfortunately after over a dozen runs on 3 of my monitors, it's evident ... Read More

- Inconsitant Results
This calibration unit was evaluated on both a CRT and LCD monitor. The calibration for the CRT was excellent.The calibration on the LCD monitor left much to be desired and the results were not constant over several trials.
Rating: - Will improve your display's color reproduction!
I was surprised how much it changed the color reproduction on the monitors -- especially since I wasn't really sure the monitors needed calibration.The first calibration on the 17" MacBook Pro did NOT produce good results; Apple recommends using a target gamma of 1.8 so that was what I initially used and the resulting calibration was horrible.I reran the calibration using the target gamma recommended by Spyder (i.e., 2.2) and got great results.Since then I've calibrated two other monitors and gotten ...
