It will cover everything you need to know .

We too will go to sea in a Sieve,---
To the hills of the Chankly Bore!'
Far and few, far and few, Are the lands where the Jumblies live;
Their heads are green, and their hands are blue, And they went to sea in a Sieve.

These links from my Bookmarks should help you out for awhile. I thought I had more but can't find them. Enjoy the read.

For now i have bought two books
I will read these  before i go somewhere else
I think an hardware guizmo will be interesting but i think these are expensif (maybe spider express will be not too $$)

I bought I Spyder v2 the other week cause I was having trouble getting consistant colours and it was driving me crazy.

I've done one calibration and schoo; is still out whether its improved the siuation. You have to be REAL patient work with those devices. I will probably have another go shortly, like any thing I suppose the more time you use it the better your supposed to get :-)

I'm glad those links helped.
