Paul,

You have been given excellent advice...not too much to add to it!

You mentioned you don't have room for another desktop computer but you might want to 
look at the all-in-one Mac called the eMac as it has very small footprint - Prices start at 
$799.00

http://www.apple.com/emac/ 

For that price and add some extra ram it will be faster - by about four times faster - than 
any used Mac notebook in that price range...plus you will have a nice big 17" screen.

QTR is really easy to install and work. I'm still having problems wrapping my old brain 
around the calibration process - I think a step by step tutorial would help for sure. But 
what I do is go into the stock curve/file and change the numbers manually, do a test print, 
evaluate, change numbers again and now have great output.
