Full monitor profiling and calibration also encompasses precise measurement and matching of the luminance values for black and white, it's not just limited to colour temperature (which I agree could be learnt) and gamma (which can be adjusted visually using the a good set of tools). I used to be able to determine the voltage of a 9v cell using my tongue to within a bout 0.25v too, but I'd really rather use a voltmeter :-) Rob Studdert HURSTVILLE AUSTRALIA Tel +61-2-9554-4110 UTC(GMT) +10 Hours [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://members.ozemail.com.au/~distudio/publications/ Pentax user since 1986, PDMLer since 1998
