I noticed that too. But if in the Display Profile Manager you click
the box "show profiles for this display only" the other ones go away.
So that's a hint that "Display" could include printers, wide-gamut
monitors, etc. On my PowerBook G4 15", the default display profile
under Tiger was Color LCD. I found going to sRGB brought the LCD much
more in tune with typical computer displays, though I had to calibrate
it to 2.2 gamma, the default sRGB was a bit off.

Even after doing this, there is a slight blue cast at 60 to 70% white
level (not due to white color point - am using D65). Does anyone know
of a good tool to LUT-imize the notebook LCD so that I can correct for
this problem?
