I believe maybe ColorSynergy is being judged on previous versions... I
have not tried v4.1 myself, but when I tried 3.x, the color sucked. No
other way to say it. But one could see profiles were really smooth, gray
ramps without banding (unfortunately not neutral!), and one could
appreciate the multitude of tools.
Then Andrew came forward a while ago to say that while v3.x was unusable,
he had tested v4.1 and found it to make very good profiles.
