Hey folks.
I have 7.1 iMac at work. (aluminum, )
2GB ram.
2.4Ghz C2D.
256MB video (ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro)
At home I have a 5.1 iMac (white plastic chin, a year old)
2GB ram.
2.3Ghz C2D.
256MB video (I dont remember the card)
Working at home, the graphics looks a lot better. There is less banding when dealing with subtle gradients. At work, there is lots of banding, and even gui elements seem wrong. Take a look at the attached. Zoom in real close. You can see a box around each button!
I have both using 'Millions' of colors. Both running 10.5.1.
What could be giving me poor color at work but not at home? Being that I can show you the incorrect color in a screen shot... I am thinking the video card is working fine and it's Leopard not working right. Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance,
Jules
