Otherwise you mess with the calibrations. Dimming the room is very important or you can get reflected room light affecting the calibration device. Eye One's software for its calibration devices also has some serious issues with Snow Leopard. Serious enough to consider not upgrading OS unless you really need to, until it's fixed.
