If you're judging color by eye from the screen, very much so. I've seen it available in two levels. In one, you can set the "white balance" color temperature. In the better level, you can individually adjust the gain on each of the three electron guns. To be really useful, you need to use this in conjunction with a monitor profiling system that uses a hardware sensor to give you feedback on what's really happening, like the colorvision monitor spyder (www.colorvision.com). -- David Dyer-Bennet, dd-b@dd-b.net / http://www.dd-b.net/dd-b/ John Dyer-Bennet 1915-2002 Memorial Site http://john.dyer-bennet.net Dragaera mailing lists, see http://dragaera.info
