I'm still in love with my Crossover 2720MDP monitor at work.

Was dirt cheap, and with the .icm profile loaded it's beautiful and the colour is almost indistinguishable from my very expensive NEC SpectraView colour sensitive monitor at home.

Given the price difference (£200 vs £1,500), the Crossover is a no-brainer.

Just make sure to get the profile for whatever monitor you have from here:

And if you're on Linux, you'll want to "sudo apt-get install xcalib" and then point it ( http://xcalib.sourceforge.net/README.html ) at the .icm profile you downloaded.

Without the profile the initial colour was very blue, but with the profile it's glorious.

Edit: Just seen that the Crossover 2720MDP is actually now ~£250 on eBay. It used to be cheaper.

Calibrates monitor, runs f.lux.
Does not compute.
