I thought I'd chime in. It's very difficult to find a color-true display these days. I've got 2 dell LCDs in front of me right now, and the older one is extremely better. It's brighter, has better contrast, and is much more color-accurate. The newer one just doesn't compare =(. I second Art's suggestion about the Huey Pro. Although, when I'm doing web graphics work, I like to see what my work looks like on a variety of color-inaccurate displays, since most users will be seeing it that way.
