I am successfully using two separate profiles with two monitors with  
Aperture 2.0. My secondary monitor doesn't look great, but that's  
because it's a nine-year-old CRT, and is slowly losing brightness. (My  
20", $1,400 "palette monitor." :-)

That would be strange indeed. I don't understand how a MacPro wouldn't  
handle separate monitor profiles -- sorta defeats the purpose, no?

I've been using two monitors with separate profiles for what, nearly  
ten years now? I remember thinking how lovely it was in those days  
when it was a struggle to get a Windows machine to show *anything* on  
a second monitor, let alone something colour-accurate.

Sorry I can't be of more help!
