      Today I finally got a Spyder2 Express monitor calibration kit, and
      calibrated my ThinkPad's laptop.  I've known it to be shockingly badly
      calibrated (although it is an improvement over the X20), but was curious
      as to how much it can be corrected.

      One word: wow.  Thanks to Graeme Gill et al of <a
      href="http://www.argyllcms.com/">ArgyllCMS</a> fame for
      reverse-engineering how the Spyder2 works, and making calibrating displays
      reasonably easy to do.  I'll probably write up what I did at some point,
      because if you are like me and don't read the documentation there are a
      number of stumbling points.

      I also blame Jakub entirely for making me think ArgyllCMS was broken by
      picking slightly warm grey tones for Darkilouche.  My freshly calibrated
      screen looked a little warm instead of the usual very cool, and it took me
      a good ten minutes to think about checking that the theme is actually pure
      grey.
