From my point of view the purpose of the Eye-One Color Cookbooks, which Apple hosted until a few months ago, was to apply a simple and effective infographics system to help image designers and page designers set rendering intents correctly when balancing between Adobe-only RCBP and open Perceptual workflows.

It may be that one Perceptual approach does not please, but that is no good reason to reject all Perceptual approaches. There are dumb and there are smart line layout tables and there are dumb and there are smart gamut mapping tables. There is a distinction between the baby and the bathwater in a sane world.

(I know the marketing purpose for the title may have been different, but I would say that the title in its two release lifetime served its purpose for many, many people in a toned-down and structured approach (as opposed to the Bagdad bazaar approach which at least here in Scandinavia is unprofessional).)

Thanks,
Henrik
