The Spyders and similar tools are used to calibrate your monitor so that the colors they display are more accurate. This is especially important for people that process their images. For example, if you were to process a picture in photoshop on a badly calibrated monitor. What you see on the screen may look fine to you but then when you upload the pic to the net, others may see totally different shades or tones on the same image. This is especially important if you print your images. I got the Spyder because I processed and printed a bunch of vacation pics. When I picked up the pictures they were much darker and less vibrant than what I saw on my screen. After I calibrated the monitor the printed pics look a lot closer to what I see on my lcd.
