First good monitors are all about 98% of adobergb.   Apple monitors are not
in that category even though they a very accurate at sRGB.

Second
who still owns a 4 color inkjet.  the 3800 on glossy stock covers pretty
much most of adobe rgb.  sRGB is smaller then swop 2 or sheet fed standard
profiles.

color printers all tend to be referred to inaccurately as CMYK printers.. this makes it easier than referring to them as CLcMLmYKLkRG printers or whatever color range of inks get jammed into the 8+ ink carts of todays printers.

And sure, there's a plethora of greens in printers that lay outside some RGB gamuts including some mesmerizing green-yellows, that doesn't make them necessarily unusable - unless you use a color space that as well as squishing, ignores outliers.

I used to produce my images on q 10 bit graphics card, a matrox parhelia coupled to a rather nice 24" CRT. I gave that up since most of the people at that time I linked pictures to were using 3DFX cards with no color fidelity on 17" LCDs.. what's the point? I work to the lowest common denominator now.
