    I'm planning on buying a laptop soon with 95% color gamut. I was hoping to do some photoshop work on it and was wondering where a good place to get a spyder calibration done it? Or a way to do it myself? (I've heard the software can be pricey?)

    Anyone that has such a setup (physically) isn't (legally) able to provide that service for you (at least, not with a Spyder setup).

    Also, if I were to do it (properly...) I would charge at least 80% of what it costs to buy it.

    My advice?

    Buy it. :)

    (And do your calibrations for your specific/unique working conditions regularly).

    Good luck.
