Right; but it does not directly support updating the Videocard LUTs for them,
so if you wish to color manage both, that will require a proprietary
solution...

Well, depending on which PowerBook and which external monitor, you may need
extra hardware in the form of a DVI to ADC convertor, or may not be able to
connect at all. Mac G5 desktops will support two monitors from the native video
card, but one connector is DVI, so if both monitors are ADC, then again you
need a DVI to ADC convertor. Macs do allow you to apply Videocard LUTs at the OS
level, so thats less of an issue than on Windows.
