Hi Rolf.
I have no problem with color management.
I think that the big problem with LCD screen is not really the LCD screen
itself. I work with both LCD and CRT and they both work well.
The problem with LCD screens is the viewing angle. With my desktop computer,
the LCD screen connected to it has been in place and I simply do not move it
and I sit in front of it pretty much the same way everyday. So I know what
to expect and I know how the picture on my screen will print.
With my laptop, this is a different story. I simply cannot rely on it to
edit photos because the viewing angle is not reproducible from day to day.
So depending upon the viewing angle, the photo may be a little too dark or
too light and if adjusted with photo editing software you never know how the
picture will be printed. To me this is not a color management problem. It
would be the same thing, but not as pronounced, if my laptop had a CRT
screen (not that this is available!) and the screen was placed at a slightly
different angle from day to day when opening of the laptop.
