I swear my monitor has a blue color cast to it, and my friend agrees with me. However, after using the color profile for a few weeks my eyes have adjusted to it and it looks fine. I made some prints to make sure my monitor was calibrated correctly and it seems this profile is indeed correct. My friend used my calibrator and he claims its giving him a blue tint to it as well, I think its all perception.

After  I didn't believe for myself, so I had my friend test it on his 24" Dell 2407 with Macbook. I've tested it on my windows desktop and laptop. Maybe they're not all bad...or there's a combo of things that causes the software to not read properly. I don't know the answer as Pantone kept trying to send new ones out but never tried to diagnose the problem. All I'm saying is for the buyers to go do their research first.

I guess maybe I got a good one in the batch. I'll have to check out my friend's monitor one day (before / after calibration). He claims there's a really bad color cast. It might be monitor / software as you said.
