Nothinf of that sort that I know of. Perhaps a look at IPA or GATF will turn
something? For my part, I do all my work under WinXP, believe it or not. I
don't miss the Mac, I gotten used to Windows. I do all my test forms in
CreativeSuite 3 under Windows and I can't say it's a challenge. True, I get
mixed up all the times between the Ctrl and the Option key, for shortcuts.
But it does not kill my productivity. Soon, I hope, I will reformat and
install Leopard -- I'm on a MacPro. And I plan to put it Vmware to switch
between OSX and WinXP. At the university where I teach part time, they use
to have strictly Mac's lab. But now, because of budget and because of the
influence of the IT group within the factulty, they threw the Macs out and
put in PCs instead. The students that have a Mac at home cope the best they
can. All in all, we get by.

I don't think your color management capabilities would suffer if you were
stuck with PCs. Save video architecture. You can put the same high-end
monitors on PCs and all good profiling don't care which way you chose to go.
