    Ok so Samsung replaced ,y LCD with a new one. a P2370. Which is insane because it only has 1 DVI port thats all. 2 problems

    #1. I am outputting via HDMI to DVI from my Studio 1737 with RGB LED and I can not get the colors right. I guess that is because I am use to the 1737's RGB LED which has 100% NTSC Color Gamut vs the Samsung P2370 which is CCFL and 82% of the NTSC Color gamut, But how do you guys adjust the colors? special software tests? sites?

    #2. Is there some adapter I could use to gain an extra DVI or VGA input like a Switcher. that would be in between my Laptop and Samsung LCD, so I could switch Sources without having to physically pull the cable in and out to a different PC.?
