Yes ... you need to calibrate both. There are devices you can buy that read
the colors off your computer screen and then adjust them to a standard. It
then saves that correction on your computer so that everytime you turn it on
it adjusts itself. This needs to be done periodically .. like at least once
a month .. to compensate for changes.

I have the XRite EYE-ONE Display 2 and love it.
