"Quickie" Mac screen calibration software which seems to work

I've calibrated our G5 iMac (PowerPC version), 13 in
MacBook, HP nc8230, and a Dell 24 in LCD monitor with
mine, and it has worked very well on all of them.

Are you sure you loaded the right software?  The
original Huey came with software not compatible with
Intel-powered Macs.  The Huey Pro software shouldn't
be a problem, though.
