    Just have a question for any of you folks. I have noticed that my monitor is extremely leaning to the blue side and the color is off on the screen. Is there anyone out there that is willing to share or knows where I can get a decent color profile for the m14x?

    The screen isn't so much "Messed up" as it is just not accurate. The color is a bit too much on the blue side. A good portion of monitors have it but as I do not have an Adobe CS5.5 licence for PC I'm looking to the good will of folks around who might have made their own color profiles to make their screens more accurate.

    just search calibrate display color in the windows 7 search box in the start menu, there you can adjust it and fix your issue.

    Just right click on the desktop, click graphics properties, go to colour enhancement. Adjust hue, or select each colour channel individually and adjust saturation.
