Re: [Digital BW] Anyone using an Apple G4 Powerbook for digital B/W?

2002-01-31 by Ricardo Lagos

I've been using a TiBook 500 for all my color and b/w photoshop work, and as
a Final Cut Pro editing station .. its got plrenty of power, and the fact
that it takes almost no room on my desktop has turned me into a laptop
believer (until i had the TiBook all i used were desktop machines .. now
both my PC and my MAC are laptops ..) .. throw into the mix an airport hub,
and you can do your b/w work from just about anywhere in the house ...

.. though for color calibration, i've hooked it up to an external monitor ..
and calibrated the monitor .. calibrating an LCD is a waste of time, since
its colors shift depending on viewing angle..
