Getting LEDs to match your halogen lighting may not be as simple as you'd
hope, just to warn you in advance. LEDs just don't look the same, and it's
more than just a matter of setting the colour. But I digress....

I can't remember where I found it as it was a while ago, but I was searching
for 'RGBLED icc profiles' or something similar to that. I'd try 'RGB-LED
+spyder-3 +icc +dell' in google or something like that.
You could always try this:

THe driver download has an ICM file which may be close enough to be of use,
at least for web browsing and I think it's v2 so it'll work in firefox.
