UGH!!! Monitor calibration woes....

[momtutu]

I do my editing on my Dell laptop. I don't have a desktop anymore.

I just got my Shutterfly calendar back and everything looks completely oversaturated - wwwaaaahhhhh!!!

It's definitely my monitor as I had my sister log in on her computer as me and look at the pictures and what she describes seeing is what the calendar printed out while on my monitor everything looks super.

Sooooo.....I'm done with editing and scrapping on this computer for now but I'm wondering 2 things - well, maybe 3 things....

#1 - How much does it run to get a laptop monitor calibrated and is it hard to do? And where would I find software to do that?

#2 - Would it be better to just invest in a separate monitor and would that hook up to my laptop and if so, what would a good brand to invest in be?

#3 - If #2 isn't a good option, what desktop computer should I look at for having a good monitor that prints out what it actually looks like on the monitor?

SO FRUSTRATED!!!!
