    I need to order some designs, but I would be using two different screens so I want to calibrate them as much as I can so they can show true colors as much as possible. How do I do that, or what are the settings I should apply on a dv6700t screen?

    I've used this both under Mac OS X and Windows Vista, and it's very simple and effective:

    I purchased mine at a local Apple Store for ~$125, but it includes both Mac and Windows software. I've seen the basic (non-Pro) Huey at Office Depot for around $30 less. Only difference seems to be the software, but I haven't used the non-Pro version, so I can't comment there.
