Wellll... after finally getting a decent color profile (man, the default one is terrible) I have a problem I can't solve; any sort of movement gives a kind of magenta-colored ghost. Most obvious on web pages using inertial scrolling.

My 5,1 15" MBP doesn't do this. In fact, by comparison the 5,1's display really is very good.

Anyone else have this? (I'd have merged this with the Red Tint post but it seems another issue).

Time to get another MBP? Sigh... feels like it :/
 
It's most clear on hyperlinks, btw. Not very clear on black text.

Hyperlinks do have a very slight (very very slight) magenta hue even when static... so I'm hoping this is a calibration issue...
 
To see if yours does this, use the trackpad to jiggle the page up and down a few millimetres.
