I recently bought a Spyder2. I waited a long time to get one. Now I
wonder why I didn't get one sooner. 

I calibrated by eye for a long time. But after using a hardware solution
I'm convinced it's the way to go. They're very affordable now. I bought
the least expensive version of the Spyder for around $60. I didn't go
for software bells and whistles of the more expensive solutions.  I
figure the standards in the base Colorvision software are more than
adequate. Although calibration made a noticeable difference on two LCD
monitors that I use, it made a huge difference on my Lacie Electron Blue
CRT. 

"I was blind and now I see." Maybe not quite that dramatic, but it made
me a believer.
