    If you have a color calibrated workflow from start to finish then it will in fact be accurate. Meaning if your monitor and printer have both been calibrated to a certain color space then the prints will match your sceen.

    I agree to amd1600 - if there is a proper color management system present from the start to finish then all prints and screens should pretty much match up.
    Of course, if you use projectors, printers and displays without calibration - colors will be all over the place due to manufacturing tolerances.

    The only reason I post Spanish is because of your location and I thought that would be more comfortable for you that's all ;)

    Even if you don't work outside with your laptop if the brightness is to low that is going to cause eyes strain in most of the cases unless you work inside Osama's Cave:D and for the color blinking of the TN panels I don't have idea because I never experience or noticed that.

    No doubt the IPS screen is better with viewing angles and color reproduction and I experience that metallic color you mention with my DELL 2711 but only at extreme angles so that is not even an issue the problem here is that the IPS screen on the laptop draw to much power and they opted for reducing the brightness a lot and when I say a lot is 450nit Desktop IPS vs 220nit Laptop IPS and to be honest anything lower than 300nit is not acceptable at least for me , now if they give me the IPS for free I take it :D

    Thank you! I could only get multi-colored boxes to show up, not actual framerates.

    I'm playing Crysis for some days now on the 3000M at a resolution of 1920x1200 with all details on "high". Don't know the framerate but it runs fine. :cool:

    I debated continuing this but this is a clear cut example of ivory tower BS

    I agree with you theoretically but this does not work in reality. You ignored the web site example and while you can get a print close it will never be the same. Further I work with large format prints that are typically printed out of the office so there is inevitably a disconnect in my work flow. Another reality is I do presentations for permit approval at city council meetings using their projector and I can tweak the colors all day on a rendering or a fly through and when it is projected it looks horrible so dont make me laugh with color calibration. Color calibration is always different on any device unless they make an ips projector that Im not aware of but integrated panel switching is not even possible on projectors. Every device will calibrate differently so im still laughing over here. I could spend tons of money and get an expensive large format printer so i have a color calibrated workflow from start to finish but it still will not be the same and that is not practical reality its theoretical ivory tower BS
