Thanks for your answer.
I'm working in colorimetric field (textile dyeing, paint coatings, food, ...)
I think I'm very familar with all these stuff, but I never spend a thought on e-ink. Do you have an idea how e-ink can be profiled?

I don't know. Our measurements are reflective. LCD and LED displays are generally emissive, which I assume requires a different measurement technology. E-ink is different still, so...

Color matching for the human eye is also complicated by illumination factors whether the color is self-illuminated or not. The color rendering index of a light source is the measure of it's neutrality when illuminating color. So if illumination is a factor look for a CRI>90 light source. This should be in the light specs.
I had this issue in my former job and it was a bear. It was a safety issue. We even had to use a number of gender-balanced human subjects with exact test conditions to resolve the issue comprehensively. BTW: Ladies won. But I digress. The point is that color matching can be a complicated topic.

Now that there are small form factor gaming desktops available, I am finally going to get one, and not rely on my notebook. I know that keyboards these days can have independent-key LED backlight with all sorts of cool ways to program it, and I want to get such a keyboard.

The Razer Blackwidow is my favorite. Clicky keys and many different color options and programmability.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

Don't go for too small a form factor - games tend to drive graphics cards pretty hard, and they generate a lot of heat which can crash it out - I had that with GTA V until I worked out where and which direction to put additional case fans. My case has the PSU at the bottom and immediately above that is the only slot that takes the graphics card, so it gets pretty work in there and GTA would crash very near the end of a mission.
Two extra 120mm fans strategically extracting hot air and it's all fine, I think.

I'm using a Corsair K68 RGB (a gift, I'd never spend that on a keyboard as a smoker). Mechanical, because that makes a good keyboard, both for gaming and writing code.
Also nice, having a C# library that you can import to set colors and patterns. Without that, mine swirls like a rainbow, until I play D3; it turns static red when in trouble.
I'd recommend that API even without you owning a keyboard :p

Weeks ago I said I tried to get Windows Sandbox working in Win10, and no matter what I tried I failed, because 1 and 2 screens became linked together, and things became impossible to use.
Evidently, the subconscious is a powerful thing, because for some reason today I wondered what would happen if I eliminated all screens on my system except for the laptop's main screen before installing Sandbox. Found out it wasn't quite that simple, because Windows tried to keep the settings for the secondary screen, so with the secondary screen working, I had to actually go in and make the laptop's screen primary, set to mirror on other, then unplug.
So, with only one primary laptop screen on the system, I installed Sandbox that way. Then plugged the secondary monitor in and for once IT WORKED! It still shows 4 more screens that don't exist on my system when I personalize display settings, but IT WORKED! I was even able to make the attached display into the primary display, with the laptop's screen to the right of it as they are on the desk.
What a pain in the ass.

You know? Things like this are why I ditched computer monitors and got a 55" 4k qled tv as a monitor. Now i have 4 1080p monitors in front of me, and no slaying the various multimon dragons.

Well, next time you go to upgrade consider it. I did spend a pretty penny, but there isn't a day that goes by where I don't feel the $1100 I dumped into my computer's "human interface" was worth it.
I learned a long time ago that the part of the computer that faces me and that I touch is the most important part of the machine.
