Also, I'm not buying the photoshop crap. All computers colors are slightly different due to different screens and digital variations. It's absolutely a horrible way to claim it's true.
There's a reason we have pantone colors and there's a reason I work with artists, graphic artists, who insist on pantone color numbers to create the right color match. They use computers to create graphic images but when you go to print those images, they use pantones.
Never rely on your computer to accurately tell you what color you are looking at. Sorry.

LOL... that's not how it works dude. You're confusing the process of matching a computer monitor's color output with accurate color, and the actual ability of a computer to detect color input(Photoshop dropper match). Outputting correct color on a monitor is very very different than comparing the colors of two color sample inputs.
Comparing two color inputs to see how closely they match is done without relying on the monitor output. So what DaFace is saying is 100% correct. You could turn off all output color except for green on a computer monitor, and still be able to accurately compare two colors of red on the computer itself. The color output accuracy of the monitor is completely irrelevant to the ability to compare colors internally on the computer.
And FYI... it's actually quite easy to color calibrate your computer monitor so you can match what you see on the monitor and what prints out of the printer. True graphic artists have tools like the following, to accurately match their monitor color with the exact pantone color:

That way you can indeed accurately rely on your computer to tell you what color you're looking at. |
