Hi Todd - My niece is a pretty top end graphic designer, and her Apple
display is calibrated for color workflow, but she and her fellow
designers still use CRTs for the most part day in and day out. Same
for the vendors I've worked with (current up till a few months ago). I
have yet to see a serious commercial shooter work from an LCD... but I
guess YMMV...
Regards,
Eric Goldstein

Colour accurate soft proofing for Graphic Designers is mostly done on
LCD monitors now. In fact Kodak only verifies LCD monitors for their
colour accurate workflow - several Apple LCD and Eizo LCD monitors.
