I'm looking to replace a laptop - 5yr old Sony Viao - that has good color rendition. While the Sony is a decent enough machine, it's color is pretty bad and, while traveling, I wouldn't try to use it to do any color work. I have a good monitor at home to do that. In general I assume that LED backlighting is a preferred choice. Prowling the stores isn't very helpful because the images on display there are so vivid. No store would allow me to plug in my flash drive that has a selection of color cal images on it.
By the way, I live in the windows world.
Thanks for your suggestions and opinions.
Thanks
