I, too, received a used product - scuffs on the spyder and opened software box. unfortunately, my product was broken as well. the product may be good in theory, but then, it would need to work for me to comment on that particular facet. you may want to consider other alternatives. from Amazon.com I am sure a professional or one versed in color management issues can use this device and achieve good results. People just getting into this should be careful. I followed the instructions and now my monitor puts a definite blue cast to everything. So obviously, I did something wrong - but finding out what isn't easy. from Amazon.com I bought the Spyder 2 Plus believing the Colorvision software would also install on Adobe Photoshop CS2, but it doesn't. I called their support desk and they walked me through the simple procedures unsuccessffully. from Amazon.com I had a lot of trouble with this because I was running an auxillary screen from my laptop and had two screens. This product DOES NOT work if you have two screens running off of one video card. Now that I have a desktop with a one to one video card to monitor ration I have had no problems. It calibrates well and is easy to use. from Amazon.com I had one of these items prior and it worked well. The upgraded one for an LCD works just as well and I love it. from Amazon.com I have been a serious amateur for the better part of 6 years now, and the idea of getting a properly calibrated monitor started nagging at me a couple years ago, when my hobby became a serious thing. At that moment I considered the original Spyder, but never got to buy one; I was confident the optic methods on screen were enough. from Amazon.com It is easy to set up with a G5 tower. The on-screen prompts make it a breeze to use. The resulting profile nicely tweaks an already excellent monitor. The only disappointment (and it is minor) is that I wish it would go through the calibration cycle faster than it does. from Amazon.com I was prompted to write this review after reading some others. This tool is designed to profile your monitor, not image ediing software. It is used as part of a comprehensive workflow to allow an image taken with a digital camera or scanned in to be consistent on a monitor, either a CRT monitor or an LCD monitor. from Amazon.com
