Only some LCDs can be accurately profiled by a Spyder, and indeed most
can't. That isn't to say that you'll get an error message telling you that
it was unable to calibrate it. It will simply miscalibrate it. I don't mean
to pick on the Spyder--I expect most devices will have similar troubles.
Although I can say from personal experience that the Eye-One Pro (the
36-band spectro) works better than a Spyder on marginal LCDs.
