Quote - MAC's, on the other hand, are still calibrated at Gc=1.8 (native settings) which gives you a brighter images.  Beautiful to look at but potentially problematic when creating Web pages, printing or sharing images between computers.

As from Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) the standard setting for Macs is 2.2.

Aside: I changed my Mac to 2.2 ages ago when still using Tiger (10.4). All Mac users still using Leopard (10.5) or below would be well advised to do this. Note that this is a setting within the OS Display Preferences, not within the monitor itself.
