LCD monitors are getting better & the best one for colour and contrast
is Apple's 23" Cinema HD Display
according to the latest tests. (problem here is - lots of $$$$. $US
3,494) CRTs are still used for critical colour
management in a prepress workflow.
Your iMac LCD screen can be fairly well calibrated by going to the
Display Calibrator and following the steps there.
In OS X it can be found in the utilities folder within the applications
folder. Applications>Utilities>Display Calibrator.
If you're using OS 9 you'll find the Monitor Calibration Assistant
here: Control Panels>Monitors. Then click Color.
Hope this helps........
