Sounds interesting - I'll be in touch directly.

I've also spotted an old article on Drobe (http://www.drobe.co.uk/ 
features/artifact1003.html) about RISC OS and LCD's. It mentions a  
program called Zebra which can be used to callibrate an LCD monitor -  
but looking on the website for that s/w (http://www.dawnsun.net/ 
riscos/software/zebra) it appears not to have been developed and says  
it is unlikely to work on an Iyonix. Is there any other software   
available for this kind of thing ? Or is this not necessary/desirable ?

Best Regards,

JohnB
