This tutorial might be useful to those calibrating monitors:

There are no absolutes and the goal is to find a monitor brightness that
coupled with your print viewing area will result in a match.  I calibrate my
NEC to 115 and use a Solux bulb next to my printer for viewing the print and
comparing it to my monitor (I don't have the space to set up a separate
viewing booth.  This set up gives me a spot on match with my monitor.  What
you cannot control is what display lighting a friend or customer will use
for one of your prints.
