It doesn't seem like it is an option for me, because I use Linux, not
Windows or Mac. Their website says they can provide a version for
Linux, but only for users with a very large installation base, due to
customization needs. Also, they only appear to support Nvidia drivers;
I use ATI as my GPU.

What can Spectraview II do that Argyll can't? I've read that Argyll
can produce very good results.
