[Leica] MacBook display calibration

[lrzeitlin at gmail.com (Lawrence Zeitlin)]

Mark,
I concur with the suggestion of several people about using the Display
calibration procedure in the System Preference panel to adjust your new
MacBook. When you open the calibration program, click on the Expert box. The
computer takes you through a step by step procedure, taking no more than
five minutes, to set the display up the way you like it, Overall display
color and brightness contrast can all be adjusted. Incidentally Apple's move
to a higher contrast display is to compete with the displays of PC laptops.
Side by side, the PCs appeared to have more "punch" than the Powerbooks,
color fidelity be damned. The sales force demanded it. Regrettably few
salesmen are photographers. This is reminiscent of the war between Fuji and
Kodak about the color rendition of slide film a generation ago.
