This from DryCreek Photo: http://www.drycreekphoto.com/Learn/monitor_calibration_tools.htm GretagMacbeth Eye-One Display (original version): The Eye-One Match 3.0 software is compatible with both the Eye-One One and the Eye-One Two. Aside from silly naming conventions, the original Eye-One Display held its own. Overall, the original Eye-One Display rates a notch below the Spyder2. It generally surpassed the Spyder2 in dealing with extreme highlights as colors faded to white. Owners of the original Eye-One Display hardware should download the free upgrade to Match 3.0. The GretagMacbeth Eye-One Display 2 is a good performer. Overall color performance is excellent. The calibration options are not as extensive as those of the Optix XR or Spyder2. If your monitor is DDC- enabled, the Eye-One Match 3 software performs the necessary monitor adjustments automatically (Mac only for now - Windows capability is "coming soon"). The fast speed, particularly on CRT monitors, makes for quick and painless calibration and profiling. A drawback for CRT use is the suction cups used to attach the instrument to the screen. These are not durable, and you will end up needing to dangle the puck from the top of the monitor or get creative with gaffer's tape.
