Hi Stasys,
I calibrate my monitor at home every week or before I print. My guess is you 
will see a difference once you're recalibrated.
Best,
Bob

Bob- My monitor was calibrated a couple of years ago with an Eye One 
Match 3 gizmo by a friend who takes care of a digital photo lab at a 
community college. They have about 30 Apple computers. I am thinking of 
getting him over to recalibrate my monitor and printer- since they  
shift over time. Good luck!  Stasys
