I have a Compaq Evo laptop that needs to be calibrated. Does anyone suggest any good (or decient) calibration software out there? After reading some of the threads, i see no one was happy with the SpyderPro, but are there any others out there that won't cost an arm or leg? Thanks All...

Although I have little experience with calibration software / hardware I recently bought the Panatone Huey, only $90, and find it seems to do a pretty good job. Even has a feature that you leave the sensor hooked up and on and it adjsuts to the light in the room.

Not sure it is good enough for pro use but it seems to have improved my monitor viewing and the colors seem to match up with the Canon i9900 printer.

Spyder2PRO works well for me. Wish I could say the same for the PrintFix that was bundled with it.
