i almost forgot statussing about this:
today i asked my boss what's special about the barco monitors at a client of ours..
spec sheet wise they're pretty normal: IPS, 60Hz, 100% sRGB/adobeRGB, not especially bright, that sort of jazz..
where they are special... is in that they self-color-calibrate EVERY 4 FLIPPING SECONDS
and they then send the results of said calibration straight to barco to make sure they're not showing any oddities.
