Sarah,

I just checked and the G4 15 inch Laptop is using 1.8 and is plugged  
into my 23 Cinema HD Display which is default set to 2.2

So the laptop is still 1.8

On my Sony laptop the gamma is 2.2 and on the 17 Sony flat screen it  
is also 2.2

I think Apple is changing in the HD displays. I wonder what the new  
Intel Macs are set to?
