man... those gamut graphs are 256-color dithered GIFs! that's really ironic. that site should fix it.

but thanks for explaining something I didn't consider before. Gamut has a lot to do with the purity of the red, green, and blue that the monitor can produce and now i see that this tech will help.

However, a real color graph would have to be three-dimensional (eg, this particular 2d projection has no concept of brightness). I don't know if many people realize this, but the color gamut is much more complicated than a triangle when considered in the full 3 dimensions. Ie, at high brightness the only thing left of the glorious color gamut of any monitor is a white spot in the middle.
