    Not strictly a hardware question, but probably closer than anything. I've
    seen advertised in photography magazines a doodad you can get to stick on
    your monitor screen, and fradiddle around to get it color calibrated. Most
    of these things seem to runwith MS software. I was wondering what anyone
    here might suggest. It would seem that if you can get a calibrated printed
    test strip, and put up boxes of the same colors on the monitor and then
    tweak the monitor adjustments that you should be able to do an adequate
    job. Any ideas??

    thanks for input.
