I just checked out ColorVision's website, and it seems that they've
introduced a Spyder 3 that's not available in the Express model. So
what I said below about the sensor's being the same is no longer
true. It also sounds like they've dumbed down the software on the
Spyder 2 Express, and you can no longer choose gamma or color
temperature. That's not good. What is good is that you can now buy
the pro version of the Spyder 2 for only three bucks more than the
Expess version. Look here:

ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=software&qid=1222951154&sr=1-2
However, if I were buying a ColorVision calibration tool today, I'd
go with the Spyder 3 Elite and spend a few more bucks to get their
most advanced unit.

I use Spyder2, and my monitor is a perfect match for my printer. I
couldn't be more satisfied. It's a good, inexpensive tool. The
Express version gives you the same sensor as the pro version. It
just doesn't allow some of the software options, like setting up a
second monitor.

Thanks for the link, Boris. Greatly appreciated. I have a Pro
Huey & I'm aware of the Spyder. It's come down a bit in price.
That's encouraging! Big cheers, Christine

Christine, if you haven't done so, I humbly yet firmly ;-) suggest
that you buy a monitor calibration device, such as this:

have. Or of course you can opt for more advanced and consequently
more
expensive option. Worth every penny.
