I was using ColorVision's PhotoCal with the Spyder and after a call to
Shawn Clark, he suggested that the only way to build a satisfactory
profile with these monitors was to, first run the inbuilt auto calibration
at the Gamma and white point desired, then set the contrast to 100% and
brightness to 50% and run PhotoCal with the puck. As you might imagine, it
was very difficult to set Brightness to 50%, without any visual reference.
Contrast was'nt that hard. :-)
