I would add that, if one has already gone as far as spending the money to
buy ProfileMaker, it seems silly to stop there and not spend a bit more (in
relative terms) to add to one's arsenal of tools a truly proficient
monitor-profiling package, like basICColor display, for example.
I agree with what Andrew seems to be saying -- that ProfileMaker's monitor
profiling module is not nearly as good as these other specialized packages,
though I am not myself a big fan of EyeOne Match either, when it comes to
creating monitor profiles that are smooth, even and neutral.
