Your images look pretty good on my EIZO L568. I just curious if the 
calibration works, I can't get the exact gammas and not able to see the 
darkest three squares and brightest one (254) on 
http://www.lagom.nl/lcd-test/. Anyway, it is good to know it works so well.

BTW, is your monitor able to resolve upper and lower part of row 1? (part or 
all?)
