Do newer CRT monitors still have gamma values in that range (1.8-2.2)?
I was a little surprised when I got a new monitor and measured the gamma
to approximately 1.3, but this seems to be the correct value for it.
I have immediate access to three monitors, and only one of them has a gamma
around 2 (a Viewsonic 15"). The others are both ADI Microscan models
and have gammas in the range 1.2-1.3. The ADI's are both several years
newer then the Viewsonic.
