    TIP: monitor color change

    When restarting your monitor after a power-down it takes up to a half hour for the display colors to stabilize. This is true whether you use the off switch, or it just goes into power-saving mode.

    Screensavers don't affect it, though (anything that keeps the pixels energized)

      I didn't realize that either. I wonder how many people made corrections, then wondered why it just didn't look right later in the day. Good tip!

        De-gaussing your monitor
        by Craig Walters
        this kind of goes hand in hand with the calibrating your monitor thread. however, it's not quite as critical and doesnt usually need to be done as often. still, it can make a difference.
