"Theirs" is the three sensor Chroma4, at a steeply increased price. I've been
calibrating all the 22" LaCie monitors I deal with lately using the Monitor
Spyder and PhotoCal or OptiCal. This is not only cheaper, but is a better
calibrator. There are no compatability issues that I have run into, but you
do have to balance the RGB guns once in a while using the frint panel
controls and the Spyder, as this is not automated as it is with the BlueEye
system.
