I don't know... But generally a lap top (or any flat screen for that matter) will show a picure brighter than a CRT monitor. Usually, the colors appear a little more "saturated" and warmer as well. A good CRT monitor like a Trinitron will usually get the most "realistic" result. Many monitors have settings for color saturation, contrast and such things. There are numerous programs that can run a test on your monitor to determine if you have the proper setting. I don't have a link available right now, but do a Google search for "monitor color test" or something like that and you will find quite a few good ones.
