I have an apple 17 (same technology as the 23) and a lacie electron blue 22 right next to each other. I use the apple for email and the lcd for photo work. No doubt the apple is a superior monitor for sharpness, brightness, contrast, evenness...you name it...but it doesn't match my prints. I have both optical and photocal with a spyder/LCD...simply can't get there. I'm about to get one of the apple 23's, however to replace the lacie because it is dying...my guess is that I'm going to have to buy an eyeone to go with it. Anyone have any success with optical/photocal with the spyder on an apple LCD?
