I've never calibrated my monitors. If you do, and it makes a difference, let us know.

People with large investments in home theater systems and projectors have them dialed in professionally.

Home computers, not so much.

I did read about that long time ago, I believe from adobe, you can even buy some devicces that will help you with the calibration but I am pretty sure it is for professionals who deal with RAW pictures and editing software, for our hobby I don't think it will make a difference.

It's actually for my wife who is a graphic artist student. But it would seem to benefit us as well, I found this anyway

I doesn't really matter unless you're doing some type of work where color is important: photography, graphic design, movie production, etc.

I have an asus ips monitor for my main monitor. It's good but more important to me is the ability to switch monitors. You can spank me, and you can spank me again, but don't take my second monitor away.
