I recalibrated with an Eye-One 2 and found that native and sRGB were both too green. I now have it set to Red - 72.9% Green - 64.1% Blue - 68.8%. Brightness 36, Contrast 100 This results in Luminance 119.5 cd/m2, and minimum 0.1. Of course, YMMV.

Yeah, I'm guessing that even with all the lights off in my apartment, ambient light from outside must still be overpowering the monitor, since it looks almost totally black to me. In fact, it looks the same as my Trinitron, sitting side by side (maybe I'm going blind...). I'll have to run...

You may want to verify that Eco mode and/or auto brightness are off if you're finding the brightness to be too high at 0%. I don't find the brightness to be excessive at all, even at around 20% in a dark room. Calibrated, I got 0.2cd/m^2, so it basically looks like it's off when displaying a...

1280x1024 75 Hz seems to work fine, by the way. No weird mouse business.

Clone mode, unfortunately I don't have a splitter. It is certainly possible that lag was less than what these pictures show. Out of roughly 12 pictures, about seven showed either 15 or 16 ms, and two showed 0 ms (the others caught the CRT between refreshes and showed nothing). But at least...

All the pictures of the black screen were taken with the same exposure setting and no ambient light. There is very slight glow in the bottom left corner, but it isn't visible in anything less than absolute darkness, and even then, I didn't notice it until I looked at the pictures. Any viewing...

Just finished calibrating with Eye-One. Looks pretty good. Default sRGB is pretty accurate, though too green. Ended up using a custom setting and everything adjusted to 6500K with no problems. As you can see from the graph, the calibration didn't appear to make any major changes, though...

Are you sure the second image doesn't show glare from the incandescent light? The amber color looks like tungsten to me.

I don't think it's going to bother me... The pixel density being what it is means that I don't see it unless it's against a solid white background, and even then it disappears if I move my head slightly (dead spots in my vision?? Maybe). Most of what I do with the computer (photo editing...

(My mini-review seems to have been eaten by the interwebs when I went to preview it... so here's an abbreviated-mini-review) Received my EA231WMi today from Buy.com. Shipped last Friday, $355 with MS cashback. No color uniformity issues, no visible backlight bleed. Maybe a very slight...
