That self Color Correction - is it part of Spectraview II?
I don't think you need a cleaning app on a mac - you just pull the app into the trash.

I don't think you need a cleaning app on a mac - you just pull the app into the trash". I realize this is not in direct reference to this thread, but a rather disturbing notion nevertheless I believe. How often have you trashed an app by simply "Trashing" it? When you have some spare time, check your Libraries, both Macintosh HD(apps etc) and User. Go to preferences in each case. I think you will find an abundance of prefs(.plist etc.) from the apps you have supposedly trashed, still residing there. If that is the case you should definitely
Trash those prefs, since they can wreak havoc when you are reinstalling an app, for whatever reason. Simply trashing an app generally does exactly that, but it does not trash the supporting prefs etc. There are a number of app "cleaners"(trashers) available, some of which have been mentioned previously. For many years I've been using "App Zapper", and have never found any prefs left behind that should not be there. Just a thought.
In reference to the main topic, I've been using PA series NEC displays for many years, along with the Spectraview calibrating & profiling software. I originally used the Spyder hardware, but have recently opted for the i1 Display Pro. My main working display(PA27W...) is now 5+ years old and is still clicking along as expected, with many hours of use. I normally calibrate to a luminance of 100 cd/m2 and produce a dE of .30. I also have the screen saver kick in after 10 minutes, and if I'm leaving the computer for a short time I initiate the screen saver manually. I generally produce two calibrations for different situations, one at 6500K and my main working cal at 5500K, and all at Native Contrast Ratio. On my most recent cal I also did a 5500K with a contrast ratio of 350:1. That cal produced a dE of .14. The NEC seems to be cruising along as expected and I'm sure I'll be able to get a few more years out of it.
