Definitely getting somewhere with this. Going to buy the i1 Display Pro and one of the BenQ SW Monitors. I'm still not clear on whether I MUST also calibrate the laptop display. Asus told me my laptop cannot be calibrated...now I think I should get back to them...did they mean the hardware can't, and yet the display CAN be calibrated by the i1 Pro software? Any case, I'll go ahead and post these questions. I've watched the videos some of you have suggested. I'm concerned about any possible conflict between laptop and the BenQ without my calibrating both devices. One of the videos talks about selecting version 2, not version 4, so that no conflict occurs, but in that video the moderator calibrates both external monitor and laptop. I can take a clue, but I want to be more clear on the necessity or if there really is any necessity that both devices be calibrated.
You all have been very helpful, thanks.
Your laptop display is irrelevant if you are using the BenQ - you're substituting the BenQ for it.

I agree 100 percent. Just forget the laptop display. It will only be in the way, use a mouse and external keyboard.
