How often do you find yourself drumming on a tabletop or other piece of furniture when the mood strikes you? Maybe it's a guy thing but ever since my teen years I would drum along some good music on any bit of furniture or cardboard box that would sound good.

If only it would sound like a real drum!

Most households do a fair bit of DIY around the place, from measuring windows to planning a patio or building a veranda. And here I'm just listing a couple of things that are happening in my household right now. All of this requires a fair bit of accurate measuring but never before has it been so much fun or accurate as with the M2, an inexpensive laser measuring device.

Time to ditch the old tape measure? Probably not as we first need to do some comparisons.
Let's see how the M2 measures up.

Have you ever seen a row of monitors all displaying the same pictures but with slightly varying colours? Normally, when you're working with just one display you may not know how different it would look if the screen had been properly calibrated. How do you ensure consistent colours on all your devices?

We are having a good look (literally and figuratively) at the SpyderHD solution for colour management for photographers and video folk.
