Just picked up a Dell u2711 IPS monitor and it came pre-calibrated with a Premier Color Calibration Factory Report. I assume that their calibration tools are far more accurate then my Gretag Macbeth. Question is do I bother calibrating it and will it be more accurate then factory. It seems to be accurate enough, just had to drop brightness to 40%.

Thanks for your help!

I would run your own calibration and compare the two profiles. I can't see how a factory calibration could be better than your own calibration using a high quality device like the X-rite/GM EyeOne (I assume that's what you're using).
